Happy New Year ! The last year has been a continuation of my “Unleashed ” paintings and prints created in Knife River, Minnesota and at The Fine Arts Work Center summer program in Provincetown, Massachusetts. The work originated with the Lizzards Gallery in Duluth, Minnesota showing the first grouping of oil paintings. Humans and Horses gesturally connected with ropes or leashes. This show was moved on to Prove Gallery (Duluth), then to Cafe Latte on grand avenue in St. Paul, Minnesota. With the addition of new prints, Adelines, Inc. in Duluth premiered the latest in the series this year.I credit Vicky Tomayko with my new techniques used. She taught a summer class at The Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown. I learned many new skills from her and as a result , have used paper-plate lithography, silkscreen, stencil, etching, and monotype printing in new ways. I pull the same print through the press many times. This exploration and experimentation have given my prints a more layered and complex look.
