"Chandelier," serigraphic print, 15"x20."

The above piece that I completed recently will be shown among the works of several other local and international artists this summer at Park Fine Art in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  This exhibition will also be shown at the Yu-Shin Museum of Art in Harbin, China and the Mujuanseong Country Club in South Korea.  The Albuquerque show opens August 5th, with the reception taking place August 19th.  Park Fine Art is located in downtown Albuquerque at 20 First Plaza NW, Suite 65, 87102.  I would like to thank the gallery owner Young-Sook Park for inviting me to participate in this exciting show, the 2011 Park Fine Art International Tour Show.

Intaglio Fertility Projects

Here are some images of some of the printmaking I've been experimenting with over the past year or so...the images I'm showing here are from a number of different matrices, some are the traditional copper intaglio (aquatint, hard ground, soft ground, etc.), others are photo-polymer plates (something I've found really exciting- a great way for me to combine my photography with my printmaking), and many of them have chine collee incorporated (I xeroxed some of the images onto rice paper and then pressed them into the BFK when I printed them).  A lot of these prints are combinations of several different matrices, some designed to be together, others thrown together experimentally.  Most of these images deal with the same themes: fertility, femininity, and what those things mean to me.  I'm still working out how I feel about a lot of this work, but I've really fallen in love with intaglio.

This one shown above is a monotype I did about a year ago...before the idea for my back series ever even crossed my mind which is interesting.

This was my first intaglio matrix (shown above) and for some reason I keep coming back to it.
