We did a group stone in my litho class at MassArt with the idea to exchange these on the last day; students did really well — today was printing day (next week is final day). We set it up so everyone fit into a 22x30” sheet. Three groups took turns and cranked out like crazy; my TA and I finished the last five sheets and trimmed them down. Each student has 21 small prints, with a variety of chine collé papers — and some are planning to add hand-coloring. They’re so happy! I am SO tired! 😜😁 They are AMAZING!!!! Great community vibe!

I am heartbroken at the death and despair caused by ICE. I keep hoping this piece becomes unnecessary, but it has to keep going. Our communities cannot, must not be eliminated.

Another reason I love being a printmaker — fun with holiday cards! In honor of my Granny, who loved to have me make cards for her.
Enjoy the season, be kind, and support artists, craftspeople, and other small businesses!
