I was wrapping up a one month printmaking residency at the Vermont Studio Center in Johnson, VT. Surrounded by artists, each of whom was a different combination of medium and subject, from emerging to established- I saw that the struggle of balancing work with art work, of making time to create and time to find new opportunities, even the choice of brain storming or going to the gym, were all things we had in common.
Below are a collection of mono prints and solar plate etchings made at VSC. I have to thank Mary Emery, of maryemerydesign.com, for taking time out of her residency to teach me how to make solar plates. For those interested in this process check out http://www.solarplate.com.
