Back in the studio after traveling around for a bit. Good to see my friends again. Come by and say hi.

Thanks 😊

In my art practice, I pull images from my moments around me. It has been a fun trip across the country. Saw a lot of interesting textures. The first coupl pic's are somewhere in TX, maybe NM. The next few are from the desert in Borrego Springs, CA.

A couple of sketches for our road trip so far. Impressions along the way... enjoy

Preparing sheets of paper for printing on top of. I love patters and textures....

Got into the next Art League show :) 😀

For those of you that don't know, I sometimes like to play in the abstract. I have completed another 4x4 oil painting. Enjoy all the textures!

I think I finished painting this cat on a bike yesterday. It is 40x30 oil on canvas. Still working on the title. Maybe, Dreams

In the last two days, I was putting my antique letterpress earings together and some Madonna ornaments.
I think they are fun. Might make for a good gift 😉

Carved this 4x5 block this morning. Was able to get a few print done. Think it makes for a fun card.

Just printed some more of my Stand With Israel mini posters. Swing by my studio if you want one.

Today, I decided to just play with some of my antique type. I really love the Madonna and the Bride. I think those are my two favorite ones for today.

It's been really hard for me to concentrate of late. Worried about my brothers and sisters in Israel. Maked some mini posters using antique wood type and linoleum block that I carved.

Here is another little abstract piece I have created.

Sometimes it's just time to let go....

A rainy day sketch. Finished this guy earlier. I think it might turn into a bigger project soon.

Created a few more of the Chinese New Years zodica animals. I have changed my mind on the monkey. And decided to do another one based more on the Japanese snow monkeys. Really enjoyed watching them many moons ago, hanging out in the hot springs. I am also currently reworking the Year of the Goat. Other than that, I think I am finally basically done.

Don't forget to sign up for classes this term.
I am teaching the monoprinting class.
Jennifer and David are excellent instructors if you want to play in etching or woodblock.

Two more done for my Chinese New Year animal project.
The "Year of the Dog" is based on a wonderful dog named Sunny.

Finished "Year of the Monkey" sketch for my ongoing project. One of these years, I will have them all done :)

Yesterday's print run. I really enjoy printing with Rainbow rolls.

Spent the day redrawing and then carving my heron piece. Tomorrow, I will put ink on it. Feel like it's been a good, productive day. Stay tuned for cards.

Reworked my space a bit in the studio. Swing by and check it out. Here all weekend!

Sketch done for next card project.

Sketching out my next card idea. Still needs a bit more work.

I know it's August, but it's that time of year to start printing end of year holiday cards! This is my latest for this year.
