I am so thrilled to have had a piece of mine chosen for my first ever juried art exhibit!  It was a beautiful show with a wide variety of types and styles of prints.  Take a peek:

My piece is the black and white one on the right of the photo below. I was super duper over the moon when I saw the red dot, meaning that it had sold!  Yay!

The whole concept behind Big Print/Little Print was to share prints smaller than 12×12 and larger than 24×24.  I thought it was very effective.  And the exhibit opened up my brain to the definition of print.  Printing techniques represented in this exhibit include:

  • stamping
  • linocut
  • woodcut
  • engraving
  • monotype
  • gelatin print
  • lithograph
  • engraving
  • letterpress
  • silkscreen
  • screenprint
  • transfer
  • digital print
  • etching
  • collograph
  • and so much more!

The Mosesian Center for the Arts has a ton of different exhibits.  Most items are for sale and fairly reasonably priced.  It's a fun gallery to poke through — and it's FREE to come and look.  I believe the current exhibit is called Reclaimed.  It's all about turning trash into art!

Thanks for stopping by!

  • I love this exhibit! Having just learned about gelli printing, this exhibition opened my eyes even more to the possibilities of
    the gelli print techniques. Am so grateful for your generosity to share your findings with me. Really a joy to see what others are doing and what is trending. Thank You, and Congratulations! on the sale of your piece. PS: Could you talk about pricing artwork? How to price our artwork? Appreciate it. 🙂

  • Congratulations on the show! The print shows around here are very impressive. You might think about joining the Guild. They usually hold a fall show at the Zullo Gallery that is amazing. (Hmmmm. . . moving in the same circles. Surely we will run into each other one of these days!)
