SGC Conference-- NEW ORLEANS


Heading to New Orleans, next week with this print to exchange in the member print portfolio exchange.

The conference is the largest devoted entirely to printmaking in North America. March 14th-17th, with artist panels, speakers, exhibitions on print, and numerous technical demonstrations on the art and craft of printmaking.
This year's theme is "Navigating Currents" and my print is based on that theme. 11"x14" Edition of 15 on Serigraphy on Rives BFK
"Currents" it is loosely base on navigating oneself back on the progression of your artwork after a move. In my case, into the isolated region of the mid-south between the Delta Region and the Ozarks having relocated from suburbia just south of Detroit, Michigan. There are many challenges in sticking with the major themes in your work while still blending and acclimating to new surroundings and aesthetics and starting new artist networks.
