(more…)April ArtZine: Rabbit Hash, KY – preview
We just completed our 8th ArtZine. Since September, we have visited a different small town to make a magazine about a different theme. Monday, April 23rd, we met in the Rabbit Hash Historical District to create work around the theme: I remember when…
There was an overwhelming turnout (over 26 participants!) From different parts of Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana. It’ll take a few days until we publish the online edition, but here is a short (less than 2 minute) video preview. It features some of the different hand painted covers, as well as this month’s entries.

Rabbit Hash General store woodcut (layer 7 of 11)
I’m over halfway finished with my Rabbit Hash General store woodcut (7 layers out of 11). Today, I’m printing purple.
The colors might look a bit crazy right now, but it should all come together once I print the other 4 colors. stay tuned!
people will never forget how you made them feel
I’m part of a project, called artZine. Each month, visiting artists collaborate with the community of a different small town to create a self published magazine. each month, there is a theme. April’s artZine will be on the 23rd, and our theme is “I remember when…”
this activity is free and open to the public. April 23rd, at the barn in Rabbit Hash, KY. There is still time to draw, paint, write, print, or create an entry however you are inspired. We’ll meet from 10-4pm.
for my entry, I chose to make a linocut of Maya Angelou’s famous quote because it illustrates the abstraction of memory, and the importance of kindness. Rabbit Hash, KY.
eagle creek – layer 9 (of 11)
Its always exciting to print a new layer, and watch a reduction print come to life. I feel like I am getting closer to. my goal of printing in a painterly way.
stay tuned, only 2 layers to go!
newsprint patterns while printmaking
I use newsprint to clean my blocks in between colors. I re use the newsprint, and sometimes I get a nice surprise when the colors line up in a certain way. as beautiful as the finished artwork, I think.
Reduction Print – April 16, 2016 -Ripley, Ohio
This video shows a little bit of what goes on during the 2 weeks it took to make this reduction woodcut of a river village (Ripley, OH) on the Ohio River.
My background as an artist is in many mediums, but primarily painting. This project is part of an experiment to see if I can print similar to the way I paint.
Because the block is destroyed as part of the printing process, there is only a very limited edition of 12 available.
