This Sunday, I will host a printmaking workshop inspired by the architecture of Sharjah. We will develop imagery from reference materials on the Emirate’s iconic buildings. We will discuss how architecture can be abstracted, framed and reimagined through print. Using traditional linocut techniques, we will translate structural forms, lines and spatial rhythms into a poster composition.

Stamps
I had some designs made into little ink stamps, so I can mark prints and envelopes by hand when they’re sold and go out into the mail.

SAFETY BOMBS (All Saint Sebastian Needed Was A Little Luck)
As an American, I only know war from afar. I live in Dubai now, a safe place historically removed from acts of war. That was until this week, when I experienced Iranian missiles overhead, accompanied by the sights and sounds of their interceptions. I worry about my two year old son – how close he is to an American war, to a missile strike while he sleeps peacefully. We all need a little luck right now.

Sharjah Printmaking Workshop
Surface Crush: Prints from Everyday Items
This Saturday, I will have a gelliplate and collagraph printmaking workshop at Sharjah Art Foundation. We’ll start with a tour of Leda Catunda’s exhibition at the Sharjah Art Museum, and draw inspiration from her work to produce our own textured and colorful prints by inking and pressing everyday items. More information and sign-ups here.
Private Linocut Printmaking Workshop in Dubai
I had another fun linocut workshop this week in Dubai. I have done these at homes for small groups, in offices for work socializing events, in galleries for interactive events, and as part of large art festivals. They’re a great creative outlet for anyone to try, with no experience necessary and unique results for every artist.
