Kim Munson - "Crows on Wire" - Monotype w/chine colle
I'm pleased to announce that my print "Crows on Wire" was selected for publication in the Santa Clara Review, vol.99 no.2. The publication was released this week, and the occasion was celebrated on Monday at SCU with readings from the publication, as well as poetry readings by guest speaker, and internationally acclaimed poet, Dana Gioia.


"Santa Clara Review is a student-edited literary magazine which publishes poetry, fiction, non-fiction, visual art, and music. The magazine is published biannually in February and May, drawing on submissions from Santa Clara University students, faculty, and staff, as well as from writers around the nation and globe. The Review is entirely student run by undergraduate students who are actively enrolled." (http://santaclarareview.com/)

A free downloadable e-book is available from the Santa Clara Review website.

Print Day in May

5/3/2012

0 Comments

 
Print Day in May is the day after tomorrow! It is an annual event that always takes place the first Saturday in May, where printmakers form around the world print "together" by making prints wherever they are, and then sharing with the International Printmaking Community on the official Print Day in May blog.

The event was started on May 5, 2007 by the MPC Printmakers and artist Robynn Smith. Every year participation grows as artists from all over the world print and share. This year, in addition to the official Print Day in May (PDM) blog site, there is now an official Print Day in May Facebook page.

I am fortunate to be part of the MPC Printmakers and helping with PDM. I will be printing with many of them and Robynn Smith this year in Monterey, CA.  We are hoping to have more participants this year than ever before!

If you would like to take part, it's very easy:
1) Print something, anything! A footprint in the sand, even a fingerprint counts!
2) Share with printmakers worldwide on our blog: http://printdayinmay.mpcprintmakers.org
3) Enjoy

Every comment, photo, or just an "I intend to print", goes a long way to fostering community among Printmakers worldwide.

Happy Printing!

I have two monotype prints in this group show, running from May 3 - 27, 2012. Below is the press release followed by the gallery postcard.
“Kindred: Connections Through Printmaking”
MPC Printmakers at Felix Kulpa Gallery

The MPC Printmakers present “Kindred: Connections Through Printmaking,” a stunning and thought-provoking exhibition of new work at the Felix Kulpa Gallery, Santa Cruz, May 3-May 27, 2012.

This group of emerging and professional artists explores aspects of kinship using new and traditional methods. Images range from the abstract to the familiar, and include etchings, woodblocks, screen prints, monotypes, photoetchings, and mixed media prints.

Since 2005, the MPC Printmakers (with support from Monterey Peninsula College) has provided a forum for sharing work and ideas. They seek to advance the understanding and appreciation of fine art printmaking with workshops, lectures, exhibitions, and the sale of unique prints and hand-printed cards.

Membership in the MPC Printmakers is free and open to all fine art printmakers.  For more information, check out their website: www.mpcprintmakers.org

Meet the artists at the opening reception, Friday, May 4, 5:00-9:00pm at the Felix Kulpa Gallery, 107 Elm Street, Santa Cruz.  Gallery hours: Thursdays-Sundays, 12:00-5:00pm and by appointment. 408-373-2854. Free admission; wheelchair accessible.
