Print Edtion Run For 2008

This week has been a busy week in the studio trying to catch up with getting editions finished. "One With Copper" took a second place to getting ink on plates. I hope to start the New Year with all my 2008 plates printed. I did do a quick photo shoot with my copper plates on my living room floor. I refer to it as my "Funny Copper Lady, Hot and Cold".
If you live in Charlottetown stop down at the Arts Guild and look at the "Prince Edward Island Council of the Arts Members Show and Sale". I framed up two of my original hand pulled prints and entered them in the show. Look in the corner where the bathroom is and you will see my artwork. I framed up one of my "I'm Not Anne" prints and one of my woodcut prints that I printed on canvas. I love printing on fabric, I guess it comes from my good old days of working in textiles.There are only two prints in the edition of "When You Lose Your Footing" that are printed on Canvas. The image in the show has a bright yellow background.

In the studio I have been printing my Christmas prints. Friends and family that stop by the house this Christmas Season get to choose one.
"A Prayer For The World" is an aluminum etching.
The prints above do not have a title yet, and it is a copper etching. I am hoping to get 20 to 30 of each done before Christmas.

Finally I am in the middle of putting the finishing touches on "Love thy Bum"
A few images I took along the way while working on "Love Thy Bum".

This is a special time of year for our family. This week my husband Terry did the reading and lighting of the Advent Candles.
Merry Merry Christmas Everyone
and a
Very Special Seasonal Best Wishes too Everyone of all Faiths!
