Drawn live at North Fourth Arts Center in Albuquerque.

TORTILLA PRINTING

I took a Tortilla Press to the drawing session in case anyone brought some linocut blocks for printing.  Rich Hasler brought a few linocuts:

and test prints

I handed out 6 x 6 inch linoleum squares to various people at the drawing group.  Mark Woody drew the last pose and vowed to bring the cut linoleum two weeks later.

I plan to bring the Tortilla Press to the drawing session every time, in case anyone brings a carved linocut ready for printing.  The idea is to be casual, but also to inspire the artists by doing live printing.  I also intend to show these 8 x 8 inch prints framed, in pop-up shows during the drawing group.
