Southern Pomo Language Poster Update

I just received these pictures of the Southern Pomo poster that I helped work on getting installed. I believe that they are being installed along a nature trail next to the Russian river. For a better look at the poster click the link Here

Eye on the Prize

Another print done with dry point and mezzotint. I really like the texture you can get from both of those techniques.

Overcome

This print ended up giving me some trouble but in the end I think it came out to be a nice print. I used a few techniques in this print like line etching, aquatint, roulette, stenciling with spray paint and scraping and burnishing. Some of the issues I had were the white dots, they were caused by bubbles in the acid and I foul bit parts of my aquatint.

Dry Printmaking

Both of these prints were made using dry printmaking techniques. The top print I created using only dry point and the bottom print is a mezzotint. Both techniques don't require acid to create the image making them dry techniques.

Print Exchange

This was a print done for a print exchange done with BYU-Provo. The print was made with three plates using techniques like soft ground, spray paint, aquatint and dry point.

Monotypes

Monotypes are prints that can only be produced one time while using a printing method i.e. press or baren. These are monotypes that were made during some free time while at school. I am taking pictures of a lot of my art work to get a portfolio out.

Southern Pomo Language Poster

I got a great chance to work on a large out door language poster for the southern pomo with Alex Walker and Dan McDaniel. In the poster we use bar codes that when scanned with an app made by Dan McDaniel will pronounce the word in the native language in southern pomo. In the image you may not be able to use the bar code so I have provided the bar codes below.

Man in the Mirror

Another painting done a while back in Rexburg. My wife helped me name this painting man in the mirror, although she doesn't remember that.

Painting of a Street

Well I wish I had something clever to say for a reason why I haven't posted in a long time like I was fishing off the coast of Madagascar but I don't. So I will just continue as if it never happened. This was a painting I did at BYUI. One of the hardest things to learn in painting for me is color.

Drawing

Just a quick drawing I made while at church. So many great people there to draw.
