Santa Fe Tortilla Prints

These are the linocut plates from the artists that we printed on the Tortilla Press in front of the Hecho A Mano gallery for the Alberto Cruz opening on August, 27th, 2021.  




SANTA FE Artists






































GUADALAJARA Artists

Los Tres Gatos Press sent us two more round linocuts plates from Guadalajara to print.  They also innovated the Tortilla Press printing:










Los Tres Gatos (Alejandra Mares and Xavier Moreno, plus Meño Miranda) taught us how to use the Tortilla Press in Guadalajara in 2019.  We are very thankful for their innovation.  Plus they sent us to the two linocut plates above to print in New Mexico.







HORNED TOAD PRINTS

Raul Monarrez from Horned Toad Prints brought his plate up from El Paso, and also operated the Tortilla Press with Manuel Guerra:



We also printed Rex Culp's linocut, from the Santa Fe Tuesday Night Drawing Group:

Days later I am continuing to make prints, so that each Santa Fe artist gets a set:

More tortilla printing at Quelab





Update (October 23rd):  I delivered packets of all seven prints to Hecho A Mano today, to deliver to the participating Santa Fe artists.
