Hello & pardon my silence! I’ve been at the Tamarind Institute since the end of August (probably since I last wrote) and my mind has been occupied with lithography and sleep (and occasionally New Mexican food) 24/7. Here’s a selection of photos from the T:

I think this might have been the 5th or 6th project. Water tusche washes on stone. Up until this point, I was scrambling so much I didn’t even think about taking photos.

The student side of the shop.

Printer Training Program ‘09-’10, minus Preston. From l to r- Jen, Peter, Me, Jon.

Visiting artist Kaye Green & I, rock hoppin’ in the Sandia mountains

Printer Training Program in a tree! Me, Peter, Preston, Jon, Jen

Sponging for Bill on the pro side. The image on the stone is one of Kaye Green’s.

Mixing colors for our second collaboration.

From our trip to Takach. Here, they’re ball-graining aluminum plates!

Now, here’s some art that I’ve made:

My image for our first collaboration. Printed by Preston.

My image for our second collaboration (totally inspired by Tron). Printed by Peter.

I know that was kind of a quick and dirty way of catching everyone up to what I’ve been doing, so I apologize. Email me if you want all the juicy details. Love all y’all! I’ll actually post more stuff from now on, hold me to it!
