Year of the Dragon - international print exhibit and exchange

I have been working away on my contribution to Toronto's Proof Studio Gallery's annual International Year of the Dragon Print Exhibit and Exchange.  The first print is kept and used for the exhibition. The other prints are offered for sale or used for the exchange.

Here are some pictures. As usual, it seems I've gone with the cute and simple theme.  Linocut and watercolour on Masa paper, hand pressed with my trusty metal spoon! haha. I believe this will make it my 5th year participating. 

PROOF Studio Gallery is located in Toronto’s historic Distillery District: Studio 104, Case Goods Warehouse, Bldg. 74, 55 Mill Street.
Exhibition runs from January 26 – February 12, 2012
Their opening is on Saturday, January 28th from 2 – 5pm works are for sale

Locally, The Ottawa-Gatineau Printmakers Connective will also organize a display showcasing our print contribitions at the Ottawa School of Art:

Monotype printmaking

This weekend I got a great chance to use Ottawa's largest etching printing press.  (Although I did not print any really big prints or any etchings I had fun getting used to the press!)  This press is located in the print studio at the Nepean Creative Arts Centre - I will be teaching classes here in the Spring/Summer session, stayed tuned for more information in the coming months!

Anyways, thoroughly enjoyed the printmaking facilities - here's a couple prints I did: (Monotype using soy based inks)
