Jun Showprint @ Holland Project

Earlier in the Spring, I was invited to participate in the Holland Project's Showprint, a monthly calendar featuring exciting events happenings around Reno (music, art, film, etc.). Each month, the Holland Project asks a different artist to carve a linoleum block, which will be printed in an edition of 200 on the back of the calendar.

Last week I spent my spring break attending the Southern Graphics Council International (SGCI) conference, the biggest annual convention focused on the Printmaking field in North America. This year the conference was "Sphere," hosted by University of Tennessee-Knoxville (UTK) in Knoxville, TN. I went to SGC with another fellow BFA student, Erin Wohletz, and we had a blast there!!

CODEX V Book Fair & Symposium

...

This past weekend I visited the CODEX V Book Fair and Symposium at Craneway Pavilion, Richmond, CA. This was my very first time attending CODEX and it totally blew my mind. I came there with my Black Rock Press crew, Judith and Jaime. The fair actually runs from February 8-11 but we could only come on its first day.
