The Close of Pressing Matters: 3rd Annual Printmakers Show

The 3^rd Annual Pressing Matters Printmakers Show at the San Geronimo Valley Community Center is no more.

Sad to see it go.

Here are a few parting shots:

Steve Parun next to one of his fine prints.

Another one of Larry Gilmour's drypoints.

"Night Weed"

 This meager shot doesn't do justice to Fred Berensmeier's remarkable collograph.

And a couple of my pieces:

"Carbon Footprint"



"Radio Poland"

I'm already planning next year's printmaking show.

In the meantime there's another heap of art to go on the walls.

Next up:  Paintings by Mot

For a previous post on the Pressing Matters show see October 10th.
