This month I was asked to be the featured artist. Here are a few pictures of the work in progress and the final printed version. Thanks to the folks at The Holland Project for thinking of me.
I was asked to participate in The Holland Project's monthly Showprint. Showprint is an all-ages calendar produced in cooperation with the Black Rock Press. Generally, I meet with the folks at Holland at the Black Rock Press and assist in printing 200 copies. The calendar portion is laser printed and the linoleum is printed on a Vandercook. These prints/calendars are then distributed throughout the Reno area at local independent stores such as Sundance and Bibo Coffee for free. This month I was asked to be the featured artist.

This past Sunday I had the opportunity to teach a bookbinding workshop at The Holland Project. The Holland Project aims to provide art opportunities (among other things) to people of all ages. Since I arrived in Reno, I have been assisting The Holland Project with the printing of the monthly Showprint, an all ages calendar of events that is distributed at various places around Reno for free. You can pick up a copy of the Showprint at Sundance, Bibo Coffee (on Record Street), or the Black Rock Press at UNR. While producing the Showprint, we talked about the idea of a bookbinding workshop which I taught this weekend. The workshop was a huge success and it was a privilege to meet so many wonderful people of all ages. I taught basic pamphlet stitch and stab binding techniques. Each participant made a minimum of four small soft cover books. Thank you to all of the people who came out and Kaitlin Bryson of The Holland Project for organizing. |
