I photographed the EUP Print Club’s Exquisite Corpse Set. There will be more info on it soon enough.

Bird Boy

This exciting semester has come to a close, so I will be posting all my prints that haven’t been interwebized soon. This print is from the Print Club’s second 24 hour print exchange. For this exchange, each artist received a fortune cookie that contained the title of their print. Here is Bird Boy in a 5 layer silk-screened print. Sorry for the lines. I will try to rescan this later.

Explosive Creativity

The Print Club was recently commissioned by the Sculpture Club to create a poster for their upcoming show in Bates Gallery. I volunteered to design the it, and with Justin George’s collaboration we banged out this rocking poster that I am so pumped about. It ended up being 14 printed layers on 4 layers of paper in an edition of 14. I really have to thank Justin because without him this would never have gotten made and it most certainly would not look as awesome.

In one night…

Last thursday the Print Club sponsored a one night print exchange. About 16 printmakers got together to make prints to give to each other. We chose 3 words from a large list to form the title of our prints and then had the night to complete them. This is my awkwardly sexual, finished print. I think of this as a self-portrait with some of the physical attributes altered to represent some of my less-than-perfect character traits. This print, along with the finger and nipple from the previous post, is the start of a new body of work I am presently calling 69 Love Stories.

This week is Edinboro University’s annual Art Auction hosted by the Student Art Leaque at Bate’s Gallery in Loveland Hall on campus. This print, along with several others in a suite titled “Pleasure Prints”, will be sold at the auction to benefit the school’s annual publication, Chimera.

In other print related news, I made an invitation for David’s 24th birthday celebration on October 16th. The evening was filled with fun and excitement, and was full of dancing. Here are the front and back of the screen-printed card.

Come have fun with…

If you don’t know then you’re not invited.

A start

Michael — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 02:18:58 +0000

The beginning of a new semester, a new degree and two new prints. These were both screen printed and are just being started. There is a lot left to do with both of them, but I am happy with how they are working out so far. Many more to come.

Constellations

I finally scanned my two favorite monoprints from my summer class. Both figures are two color screen prints collaged onto backgrounds they were made by spray-painting stencils with screen printed celestial bodies. Here they are for your enjoyment.

A collaborative postcard from outer-space by Gustav Trauth (of moreframes) and myself. He designed the character and I added extras and screen printed it.

This is a silk screen print completed for the intermediate printmaking class I am taking that ends on Wednesday. This class also ends my career as an undergrad at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. More work from this class will be posted soon.
