EXQUISITE PRINTS
We are going to use the drawings of this session to make EXQUISITE PRINTS!
After the success of the BIG INK collaboration, the artists in Henry Morales' studio decided to engage in another print collaboration -- the EXQUISITE PRINTS.
The idea is taken from the Surrealist game "Exquisite Corpse."
We are all going to carve a 6" x 12" piece of linoleum, with an image from the same long model session, and then cut it up in three pieces. Later we will reassemble the three pieces -- but from linoleums of different artists.

We had done small collaborative prints last year, after cutting 6"x6" linoleum squares into two puzzle pieces, and distributing them to Henry Morales, Virgil Velasco, Cody Kamrowski of Albuquerque, and Manuel Guerra of El Paso:
I could use the laser cutter to engrave linoleum to make an Exquisite Print. I did not do that (yet) with my AI Exquisite Print, but I could:

for making an AI Exquisite Print
We could also make Exquisite Corpse drawings, and then massage them digitally to laser engrave on Linoleum.

Delivery
Ellie cut down all four pressings of the BIG INK print and put them in 24" x 36" tubes, and then delivered them to all the BIG INK collaborators:
