with her menagerie of adorable rabbits.&amp;nbsp; How can one do better &amp;nbsp;thanthat…&amp;nbsp; so this became a cuddly rabbit waiting to see if you would try to pick him up.&amp;nbsp; I actually wanted to title it ‘Year of the Moll-haired Rabbit’ but realized I don’t know what a mohair looks like and I didn’t want insult Diana’s furry friends. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;This is the first time in ages that I kept the edition size down to exactly the number in the exchange.&amp;nbsp; I like the idea of them being special and limited to only my Baren friends. &amp;nbsp; Also I love the idea that this block is now cancelled ... very liberating.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: center;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Para el Ano del Conejo me inspiro muchisimo el &lt;a href="http://theqipapers.blogspot.com/"&gt;blog de Diana Moll&lt;/a&gt; con su coleccion de conejitos lindos.&amp;nbsp; Como puede uno mejorar a este...&amp;nbsp; entonces este es un conejo adorable, esperando a ver si lo recojas para acariciarlo.&amp;nbsp; En realidad quise titularlo 'Year of the Moll-haired Rabbit' ... un juego de la palabra inglesa 'mohair' que no sale en castellano en ningun sentido ... y tambien como no tengo ningun idea como parece un conejo angora no quise insultar a esos amiguitos de Diana.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Este es la primera vez en mucho tiempo en que hize una edicion exacta para el intercambio.&amp;nbsp; Me gusta el idea de que son unicos limitados a solo mis amigos de Baren.&amp;nbsp; Tambien me encanto el idea de que este bloque ya esta cancelado...&amp;nbsp; me siento libre.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-5915262345510762206?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/5915262345510762206/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=5915262345510762206' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/5915262345510762206'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/5915262345510762206'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2011/11/year-of-rabbit-ano-del-conejo.html' title='Year of the Rabbit / Ano del conejo'/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3pdQj2Tvtok/TrfLxPG_4KI/AAAAAAAAAuc/t-yyFxpyKdQ/s72-c/Woodcuts-Year-of-the-RabbtW.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-5980830779833578758</id><published>2011-08-20T08:33:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-21T09:16:51.150-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='linocut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstract'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Valentine'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='San Valentin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Zentangle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corazon'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Solstice'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Solsticio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstrato'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

complicado como el corazon humano es complicado.&amp;nbsp; Este impresion es otro de la serie (10 en total) basada en disenos abstratos tipo Zentangle que hize el ano pasado, al fin dandos sus frutos.&amp;nbsp;

This is mine.&amp;nbsp; In planning this print I wanted it to be symbolic of hope for Japan rather than dwell on the tragedy of the recent earthquake and tsunami.  The black fan symbolizes the honor of the Japanese people, the cranes stand for hope and tranquility, and the cherry blossoms for the eternal beauty of nature.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Varios artistas del grabado (del foro Baren) desde todo el mundo estan involucrados en un proyecto para acumular fondos para las victimas del terremoto y tsunami recien en el Japon.&amp;nbsp; Los gradados resultantes estan de venta &lt;a href="http://barenforum.org/japan/"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Este es el mio.&amp;nbsp; En planear este grabado en linoleo quise un simbolo de la esperanza para Japon en vez de pensar en lo tragico del terremoto y tsunami de este ano.&amp;nbsp; El abanico negro simboliza el honor del pueblo japones; las grullas, la esperanza y tranquiliada; y los flores del cerezo, la belleza eterna de la naturaleza. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-3902843058632850027?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3902843058632850027/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=3902843058632850027' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3902843058632850027'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3902843058632850027'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2011/07/inspired-by-japan-recovery-inspirado.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TefRD9yi93k/Tiw-iHVduPI/AAAAAAAAAuM/rQ45tVqN5eE/s72-c/Linocuts-Inspired-by-Japan-.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-7122780622277915081</id><published>2011-07-22T11:46:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-07-22T11:46:06.006-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='linocut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstract'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstrato'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Ando explorando un nuevo medio de arte que me fascina:&amp;nbsp; el scratchboard.&amp;nbsp; Es otra manera de dibujar.&amp;nbsp; En vez de lapiz o pluma hago rasgos y rayas en una tabla cubierta de tinta negra.&amp;nbsp; Se puede hacerlo con papel pero prefiero las tablas preparadas por Ampersand.&amp;nbsp; Donde marco on una navaja salen lineas blancas.&amp;nbsp; Mas sobre esto luego.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Este fue hecho para una subasta de la Liga de Arte de Nuevo Mejico.&amp;nbsp;

Since I didn't  want any white, the first color pass was not cut into at all.  Then, for the  violet, all the water area was cut away, the wood was inked and  registered on top of the solid turquoise.  For the last color, all divers, fish,  and most of the reef were cut away, the wood was inked and registered on  top of the previous two colors.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;We printmakers fondly use the term 'suicide print' for this method since it is so easy to cut too much or, much worse, start with a set edition number in mind and come out with only a few that  are properly registered. Because I needed 31, I started with 51 and ended with 43 that I'm  proud of...  The others are in my 'circular file', better known as the waste basket.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Despues de anos de ser instructora de buceo, nunca habia hecho nada con buzos en mi arte...&amp;nbsp; entonces tome esta oportunidad con un intercambio de Baren, las unicas reglas siendo que sea un grabado en relieve de reduccion de tres colores en papel tamano 25cm por 19 cm.&amp;nbsp; Quise expresar aquel momento en cuando el novato esta tan encantado por la maravilla de la experiencia, ya sin miedo, listo para soltar la mano del instructor.&amp;nbsp; Disculpas a todos los buzos responsables en que dos de ellos no son buenos companeros, siendo un poco lejos uno del otro...&amp;nbsp; pero fue necesario para la composicion.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;style&gt;&lt;!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:"";

Since I've worked so long with one color in my printmaking, I find this medium very easy.

Feeding birds may erupt in explosions of wings at a moments notice and, at dusk, flight after flight of geese and cranes return to roost in the marshes. It's an awesome sight which should be experienced and was my inspriation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This simple little black and white woodcut was done for the SSNW09 print exchange, a twice annually exchange celebrating the solstice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-style: italic;"&gt;En el estado de Nuevo Mexico (EEUUA) hay un sitio magico llamado El Refugio Nacional del Bosque de Apache a lo cual millares de pajaros migran cada otono (grullas sandhill, gansos articos, una variedad de patos) para pasar el invierno.  De golpe habran explosiones de alas y, a la nochecer, vuelo tras vuelo de gansos y grullas vuelven para descansar en los pantanos.  Es  tan impresionante verlo y me inspiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este grabado sencillo en blanco y negro fue hecho para el intercambio de grabados del SSNW09, lo cual occure dos veces al ano para celebrar el solsticio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-82256645573632790?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/82256645573632790/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=82256645573632790' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/82256645573632790'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/82256645573632790'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2010/03/flying-south-volando-hacia-el-sur.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S5lCq44ZUII/AAAAAAAAAs0/BXq33M_md28/s72-c/Woodcut-Flying-South-WEB1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-6079870305951591505</id><published>2010-03-04T09:15:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2010-03-04T10:13:31.647-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Koran'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Coran'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Arabic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oriente Medio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Middle East'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S4-yo8Pu5aI/AAAAAAAAAss/woZRNfY6ByE/s1600-h/Woodcuts-The-Boat-WEB.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 191px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S4-yo8Pu5aI/AAAAAAAAAss/woZRNfY6ByE/s320/Woodcuts-The-Boat-WEB.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444766890950845858" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;'The Boat' ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'La Lancha'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Size/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tamano&lt;/span&gt;:  4.25" x 8" ~ 11 cm x 20.5 cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Paper/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Papel&lt;/span&gt;:  Arches 88&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Ink/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tinta&lt;/span&gt;:  Daniel Smith Traditional Relief&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Edition/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Edicion&lt;/span&gt;:  75&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;My blog has been quiet much too long but I have been very busy in the studio.  'The Boat' is my contribution to the typography theme exchange of the Baren forum.  I just received my set of prints and am delighted to see such variety from so many talented printmakers.  Soon the entire collection will be posted and you will be able see the collection &lt;a href="http://www.barenforum.org/exchange/exchanges.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Years ago, while posted in the Middle East, I picked up an applique tapestry with this image in the Cairo cloth souk (market).  Typically this type of art is an artistic version of a verse from the Koran.  Unfortunately the seller did not know what it said but if there are any of you out there that do know, please comment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Mi blog ha sido demasiado quieto recientamente pero si he estado ocupadisima en el estudio.  'La Lancha' es mi contribucion al intercambio recien de Baren forum, el tema siendo la tipografia.  Acabo de recibir mi coleccion y estoy encantada de ver tanta diversidad de tantos artistas talentosos.  Pronto estara en la galeria de Baren and podran ver la coleccion &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://www.barenforum.org/exchange/exchanges.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Hace anos, mientras un puesto en el Oriente Medio, compre en el mercado de tela en Cairo un tapiz que llevaba este imagen.  Tipicamente este arte es una version artistica de un versiculo del Coran.  Lamentablemente el vendedor no sabia lo que decia pero si hay entre ustedes que si lo sabe... por favor haz un comentario.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-6079870305951591505?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/6079870305951591505/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=6079870305951591505' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6079870305951591505'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6079870305951591505'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2010/03/boat-la-lancha-woodcut-grabado-en.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S4-yo8Pu5aI/AAAAAAAAAss/woZRNfY6ByE/s72-c/Woodcuts-The-Boat-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-4230393321279279897</id><published>2010-02-11T17:53:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2010-02-11T18:19:08.555-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sunrise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pintura'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oleo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='countryside'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oils'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='plen aire'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S3R8di9H4UI/AAAAAAAAAsk/cv8SBXWIf3c/s1600-h/Oils-WEB-Sunrise-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 226px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S3R8di9H4UI/AAAAAAAAAsk/cv8SBXWIf3c/s320/Oils-WEB-Sunrise-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437107497184256322" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Sunrise' ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Salida del sol'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Oil on panel ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Oleo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;7" x 5" ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;18 cm x 13 cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I find it incredible that 3 months have gone without posting here.  I've been way too busy with studio work, woodcut deadlines, and family visits.  This little oil painting was started early one morning on my porch, looking east toward Culebra and distant St. Thomas.  The morning sky is ever changing and always beautiful with the glow of sun silhouetting palms and yagrumo trees.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The painting is now at the Maji Lina Gallery in Palmer (Rio Grande), which is having their grand opening this Saturday.  Hopefully it will find it's way into someone's heart soon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Me parece increible que hayan pasado 3 meses sin escribir algo aqui.  He sido demasiado ocupada con trabajo en el taller, los plazos de varios grabados, y visitas de familia.  Este oleo pequeno fue empezado una madrugada en la veranda, con vista al este a Culebra y San Tomas en la lejania.  El cielo por la manana siempre cambia y es bellisimo con el brillo del sol detras de las palmas y los yagrumos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;La pintura ya esta en la Galeria Maji Lina en Palmer (Rio Grande), que tiene su apertura formal esta sabado.  Ojala que encuentra un duenos pronto que le tiene carino.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-4230393321279279897?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/4230393321279279897/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=4230393321279279897' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/4230393321279279897'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/4230393321279279897'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2010/02/sunrise-salida-del-sol-oil-on-panel.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/S3R8di9H4UI/AAAAAAAAAsk/cv8SBXWIf3c/s72-c/Oils-WEB-Sunrise-1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-3546491519802782227</id><published>2009-11-05T10:28:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2009-11-05T11:05:41.809-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Alaska'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvLhNTWArCI/AAAAAAAAAr4/3UH_3Uy8BEI/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Sitka-WEB-09.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 110px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvLhNTWArCI/AAAAAAAAAr4/3UH_3Uy8BEI/s320/Woodcuts-Sitka-WEB-09.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400626521817787426" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Sitka'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Edition/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;edicion&lt;/span&gt;:  50&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Size/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;tamano&lt;/span&gt;:  8" x 2.75" / 20 cm x 7 cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I continue my love affair with Alaska.  Our recent trip resulted in thousand of photos which I keep sorting through, making decisions what to do next.  Thank goodness for digital cameras and laptops.  I couldn't afford to take 100 photos of a bear doing next to nothing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;This is my &lt;a href="http://www.barenforum.org/index.html"&gt;Baren&lt;/a&gt; Exchange #42 contribution&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;.  The only requirement was the paper size:  3"x9" or 7.5 x 23 cm' woodcut&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;so I decided to do another 'architectural&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;' piece.  The historic Russian Orthodox Church (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Cathedral of St. Michael the Archangel&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;) is actually a rebuilt version of the original that burnt down in 1966.  It's rather crowded in by all the other buildings but it still shows beautifully.  I rather like how the print came out.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Sigo con mi romance con Alaska.  Nuestro viaje recien resulto en miles de fotos las cuales continuamente estoy revisando, haciendo decisiones  de que hago proximo.  Bendito que haya cameras digitales y computadoras.  Nunca podria tomar 100 fotos del mismo oso haciendo casi nada.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Este es mi contribucion para el Intercambio No. 42 del &lt;a href="http://www.barenforum.org/index.html"&gt;Baren&lt;/a&gt;.  El unico requisito fue el tamano del papel:  3"x9" o sea 7.5 cm x 23 cm... entonces decidi hacer otro grabado en madera 'estilo arquitecto'.  La iglesia historica de los Rusos Ortodoxos (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Catedral de San Miguel el Arcangel&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;) realmente es una replica del original que se quemo en 1966.  Estoy contento como salio este grabado.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-3546491519802782227?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3546491519802782227/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=3546491519802782227' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3546491519802782227'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3546491519802782227'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/11/sitka-woodcut-grabado-en-madera-edition.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvLhNTWArCI/AAAAAAAAAr4/3UH_3Uy8BEI/s72-c/Woodcuts-Sitka-WEB-09.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-1469248129850132543</id><published>2009-10-11T15:03:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-11T15:28:34.987-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animales'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/StIsQqL6RKI/AAAAAAAAArw/9mvUGcVBdC8/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Juneau-Roof-WEB.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 223px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/StIsQqL6RKI/AAAAAAAAArw/9mvUGcVBdC8/s320/Woodcuts-Juneau-Roof-WEB.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391420368629679266" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;'North Juneau Roof' ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Techo en el norte de Juneau'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en Madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.25" x 5.25" ~ 21 cm x 13.5 cm&lt;br /&gt;Edition/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;edicion&lt;/span&gt;:  50&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;My newest Alaskan inspired print actually came from a roof in downtown Juneau but this woodcut is part of a series of cardinal directions so the title contains the word 'north'.  This, for me traveling from Puerto Rico, is very North.  I might not have noticed this salmon weather vane but there was one of Alaska's many ravens sitting below it.  What could be more iconic for Alaska than a salmon and raven.  In fact, I have another woodcut in the works...  a raven (which I must have been in another life).  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;El grabado mas recien mio actualmente viene de un techo en el centro del pueblo de Juneau (Alaska) pero, como este grabado es parte de una serie de las direcciones cardinales, el titlo contiene la palabra 'norte'.  Este, para mi viajando de Puerto Rico, es sumamente norte.  Quizas no hubiera visto esta veleta de un salmon pero habia un cuervo sentado abajo.  Que pudiera ser icono para Alaska que un salmon y un cuervo.  En realidad, estoy cortando otro grabado en madera...  un cuervo (que pienso que fuera en otra vida).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-1469248129850132543?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/1469248129850132543/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=1469248129850132543' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1469248129850132543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1469248129850132543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/10/north-juneau-roof-techo-en-el-norte-de.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/StIsQqL6RKI/AAAAAAAAArw/9mvUGcVBdC8/s72-c/Woodcuts-Juneau-Roof-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-8695618762090140369</id><published>2009-10-10T13:50:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-10T14:08:44.807-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oleo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oils'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/StDJp9epNqI/AAAAAAAAAro/3MW4kTd3mFo/s1600-h/Oils-Hacia-Culebra-WEB2-200.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 227px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/StDJp9epNqI/AAAAAAAAAro/3MW4kTd3mFo/s320/Oils-Hacia-Culebra-WEB2-200.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391030476677396130" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Hacia Culebra' ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Looking Towards Culebra'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oleo en gessobord ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Oil on gessobord&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7"x5" ~ 18 cm x 13 cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;I'm working on a grouping of small oil paintings for the opening of the new art gallery in our area.

When we had our sailboat the two cays were a favorite stop if the ocean swells were low.

I was awed, especially by the difficulty of access to this vast northern area.  We went on one of the Cruise West ships and, because it was one of the small ships, we were able to go to areas that are inaccessible to the gigantic cruise lines.  In Tracy's Arm we saw a small seaplane going who know where...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-style: italic;"&gt;En mayo hicimos un viaje a Alaska, la area de el dicho 'Gold Rush' donde descubriyeron oro hace anos atras.  Me impresiono muchisimo, especialmente la dificultad del aceso a la mayoria del esta area nortena.  Fuimos en un barco de Cruise West and, por ser uno de los cruceros pequenos, pudieramos ir a areas inacesibles a los cruceros gigantescos.  En la area de Tracy's Arm vimos un avioneta yendo a no se donde...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-1150853346313610815?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/1150853346313610815/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=1150853346313610815' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1150853346313610815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1150853346313610815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/10/into-wilderness-tierra-virgen-solar.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Ss-3syu1xfI/AAAAAAAAArg/pRGlO9Qn5Ww/s72-c/Solar-Into-the-Wilderness-F.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-4290684391247958525</id><published>2009-09-24T12:55:00.009-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-24T13:23:23.572-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='watercolor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acurela'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SrukmK7H2JI/AAAAAAAAArQ/3JGjo5kInwQ/s1600-h/WC-WEB+Saddle-Decor.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SrukmK7H2JI/AAAAAAAAArQ/3JGjo5kInwQ/s320/WC-WEB+Saddle-Decor.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385078755125876882" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Saddle Decor' ~ &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Adorno de la silla vaquera'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Watercolor ~ &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Acuarela&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;7" x 5" ~ 18cm x 13cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Details on saddles always fascinate me...

She is a fine printmaker and very active artist who inspires a lot of us, especially with her watercolor enhanced ghost prints.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;This is my recent 'From My Window', which I printed without ink on a piece of watercolor paper... a ghost print.  Then I had fun going back in with watercolor.  Because there were some stray ink marks on the white areas, I used an exacto knife to cut out the colored area and mounted that on a piece of Arches 88.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Siempre leo el blog de  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://belindadelpesco.blogspot.com/2009/03/dry-point-engraving-tiny-dancer.html"&gt;Belinda Del Pesco&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;.  Ella es una excelente artista, muy activa con pinturas y grabados quien inspira a muchos de nosotros, especialmente con sus grabados 'ghost' en que se usa acuarela.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Este es mi grabado recien 'Desde mi ventana', que hice sin tinta en un pedazo de papel acuarela...  un grabado 'ghost' o 'fantasma' porque no se ve muy bien.  Entonces me diverti aplicando acuarela.  A causa de que habian unas manchas de tinta en las areas de blanco, use una navaja tipo 'exacto' para cortar la area de color y la monte en un papel Arches 88.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-4214318185635016882?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/4214318185635016882/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=4214318185635016882' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/4214318185635016882'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/4214318185635016882'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/09/open-window-monoprint-ventana-abierta.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sqo15PXswVI/AAAAAAAAArA/EMSMcuwWkcI/s72-c/Open-Window-Monoprint-2009.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-4626971922669627947</id><published>2009-09-10T11:55:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-10T11:58:59.889-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sqkhk9QuF3I/AAAAAAAAAq4/duvelXDTZyk/s1600-h/Woodcuts-From-My-Window-WEB.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 242px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sqkhk9QuF3I/AAAAAAAAAq4/duvelXDTZyk/s320/Woodcuts-From-My-Window-WEB.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379868148674467698" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 1.5in 0.0001pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;'From My Window' ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Desde mi ventana'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 1.5in 0.0001pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 1.5in 0.0001pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;Edition/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Edicion&lt;/span&gt;:  46&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 1.5in 0.0001pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;Image size/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tamano del imagen&lt;/span&gt;: 7"x10"/18x25 cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 1.5in 0.0001pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 1.5in 0.0001pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%; font-weight: bold;"&gt;This woodcut is my recent contribution to the Baren Forum relief print exchange #41...

My tools are &lt;a href="http://www.imcclains.com/catalog/blocks/quikwood.html"&gt;wood putty&lt;/a&gt; and cut up playing cards, the plasticized kind casinos give away free.  (Since I'm not playing poker with these, the hole punched in the middle doesn't matter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Quiero mostrarles como hago pequenas reparaciones en la madera de un grabado.  Mis implementos son &lt;a href="http://www.imcclains.com/catalog/blocks/quikwood.html"&gt;mascilla&lt;/a&gt; para madera y pedacitos de naipes, the tipo plastico que se usan en los casinos que se regalan gratis.  (Como no las uso para jugar al poker, el agujero en el centro no me importa.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SqgxknZbFLI/AAAAAAAAAqY/XbJC-_tbuqI/s1600-h/Woodcuts-From-My-Win-Putty.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 234px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SqgxknZbFLI/AAAAAAAAAqY/XbJC-_tbuqI/s320/Woodcuts-From-My-Win-Putty.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379604260014724274" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;First I work the putty with my fingers, according to the directions.  I always wear disposable plastic gloves when I do this.  I then spread the putty into the area needing repair, pressing firmly as I do so.  Before the putty has a chance to set up, I take the small piece of card and smooth the area, working it over and over until it is the same level as the uncut wood surrounding it.  The edge of the card is also useful to level the putty application.  I toss the cards frequently as they get tacky with putty.  With a little patience, this makes sanding later unnecessary, as you can see below...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Primero mezclo la mascilla con los dedos, segun las instrucciones.  Siempre lo hago usando guantes plasticos disponibles.  En el area que requiere el reparo, firmamente aplico la mascilla.  Antes de que se pone duro, tomo una  naipe y trabajandola poco a poco la mascilla llega a la misma nivel de la madera no cortado alrededor.  El borde de la naipe tambien es util para nivelar la mascilla.  Las boto con frequencia porque la naipe se llena con el exceso de mascilla.  Con un poco de paciencia, este proceso elimina la necesidad de lijar la mascilla seca mas luego, como se ve abajo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sqgxr2cNCBI/AAAAAAAAAqg/7FFn8R0YfbA/s1600-h/Woodcuts-From-My-Win-Repair.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 316px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sqgxr2cNCBI/AAAAAAAAAqg/7FFn8R0YfbA/s320/Woodcuts-From-My-Win-Repair.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379604384312002578" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-939343126454601461?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/939343126454601461/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=939343126454601461' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/939343126454601461'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/939343126454601461'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/09/let-me-show-you-how-i-make-small.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SqgyLRyLjKI/AAAAAAAAAqo/McbfvLjxhkM/s72-c/Woodcuts-From-My-Win-Tools-.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-158175984197942874</id><published>2009-07-24T15:55:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2009-07-24T16:21:38.676-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SmoSA0JeYlI/AAAAAAAAAqA/TDqGEJiBbSs/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Window-Proof-Plate.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 258px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SmoSA0JeYlI/AAAAAAAAAqA/TDqGEJiBbSs/s320/Woodcuts-Window-Proof-Plate.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362118111545680466" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I'm proofing my latest woodcut for the &lt;a href="http://www.barenforum.org/"&gt;Baren&lt;/a&gt; #41 exchange.

It came in late Thursday and has given the entire island a hazy look.  Visitors think it is charming... but we in Puerto Rico are warned that those with breathing problems should stay inside in air conditioned splendor.  Unfortunately almost everyone I know doesn't have air conditioning so our ceiling fans spread it through the house.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Son las 6:30 de la madrugada yel cielo deberia ser azul pero  el polvo de la Saharan esta con nosotros.  Llego por la noche el jueves pasado y ha dado un aspecto brumoso a toda la isla.  Nuestros turistas lo piensa un encanto...  pero nosotros en Puerto Rico estamos  en alerta para los que padecen de problemas de respiracion, que se deben quedarse adentro con aire acondicionado.  Por desgracia casi todos de mi amistades  no tienen aire acondicionado entonces nuestros abanicos de techo lo disemina por toda la casa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-6406661930885433483?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/6406661930885433483/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=6406661930885433483' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6406661930885433483'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6406661930885433483'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/06/its-630-in-morning-and-sky-should-be.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SkX4AyiriPI/AAAAAAAAApw/M7je5Q8j7qM/s72-c/2009-Saharan-Dust.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-2017542470135551680</id><published>2009-06-24T18:01:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2009-07-04T09:27:08.829-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='watercolor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='San Juan'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acurela'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SkKibINCyDI/AAAAAAAAApo/Q8MH1T6MTT8/s1600-h/WC-Iglesia-San-Jose-6x4-200.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 205px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SkKibINCyDI/AAAAAAAAApo/Q8MH1T6MTT8/s320/WC-Iglesia-San-Jose-6x4-200.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5351017894211930162" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'La Iglesia'&lt;/span&gt; ~ 'The Church'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Acuarela&lt;/span&gt; / Watercolor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tamano&lt;/span&gt; / Size:  15cm x 10cm / 6" x 4"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-weight: bold;"&gt;I've using my watercolors this week with two goals in mind.  First, it's been several years since I've done any watercolor (embarrassing since I'm a juried member of the Puerto Rican Watercolor Society) and, second, I wanted to work with dramatic light which I want to incorporate into my monochromatic woodcuts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is part of Old San Juan's historic San Jose Church, built in 1606, and one of two Gothic churches on the island.   I love the play of light at high noon on old Puerto Rican buildings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;He estado pintando con acuarela esta semana con dos propositos.  Primero, ha sido varios anos que no lo hago (aunque soy miembra de la Asociacion Acuarelista de Puerto Rico) y segundo queria trabajar con luz dramatica para  incorporarla en los disenos monocromaticos de mis grabados en madera.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Este es parte de la Iglesia de San Jose del Viejo San Juan, construido en 1606, y uno de solo dos iglesias goticas en la isla.  Me encanta la luz de mediodia vista en las paredes de los edificios antiguos de Puerto Rico.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-2017542470135551680?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/2017542470135551680/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=2017542470135551680' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/2017542470135551680'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/2017542470135551680'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/06/la-iglesia-church-acuarela-watercolor.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SkKibINCyDI/AAAAAAAAApo/Q8MH1T6MTT8/s72-c/WC-Iglesia-San-Jose-6x4-200.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-3304358966683382093</id><published>2009-06-21T06:47:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2009-06-21T08:16:21.481-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='roadrunner'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='correcaminos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animales'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sj4P97aexaI/AAAAAAAAApg/o6jdDOX4y1s/s1600-h/2009-Roadrunner-print.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 253px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Sj4P97aexaI/AAAAAAAAApg/o6jdDOX4y1s/s320/2009-Roadrunner-print.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349730963957925282" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Roadrunner' ~ &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Correcaminos'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Edition/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;edicion&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;: 40&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Size/tamano:  6.75"x5.25" / 17cmx13cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-weight: bold;"&gt;You might remember my roadrunner photo when I was in New Mexico last winter.

While traveling, we just stumbled on this wonderful place.   While the exhibition space is modest, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.museumofglass.org/live-glassmaking/about-the-hot-shop/"&gt;Hot Shop&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; is an experience not to be missed.  With good seating and overhead cameras, we were able to see Australian artist&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.edolselliott.com/index.html"&gt; Ben Edols&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;            work his magic, with the help of the regular museum glass artists.  I know you can't all visit but they have a web cam worth watching.  If it's not showing when you &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.museumofglass.org/live-glassmaking/watch-the-hot-shop-live/"&gt;click this&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;, check the hours for your time zone because its really a treat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;El &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://www.museumofglass.org/"&gt;Museo de Vidrio en Tacoma, Washington&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;, es algo para todos.  Estamos de viaje and 'sin querer queriendo' encontrabamos con este sitio maravilloso.  Aunque el area de exhibicion es pequeno, el &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://www.museumofglass.org/live-glassmaking/about-the-hot-shop/"&gt;Hot Shop&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt; es una gran experiencia.  Con asientos buenisimos y cameras por encima, podiamos ver al artista Australiano          &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://www.edolselliott.com/index.html"&gt;Ben Edols&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt; hacer su magica, con la ayuda de los artistas regulares del museo.

It's a bi-weekly challenge to us artists to all create from the same photograph. Never being quick on the draw, no pun intended, I've had the Week 1 Challenge 'My Jack' floating around the studio and .... finally ... he's done. There have been more than 20 challenges to date. These are supposed to be done within a two week time frame. Somehow that doesn't work for me but the inspiration does ... eventually. If you need some of that inspiration, I suggest visiting that site. There might just be something that sets you to carving...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;El blog &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://differentstrokesfromdifferentfolks.blogspot.com/2008/09/photo-of-week-my-jack.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;'Different Strokes from Different Folks'&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; es la creacion maravillosa de la artista Karin Jurick. Es una reta cada dos semanas a nosotros los artistas a crear de la misa fotografia. Como nunca hago nada rapidamente, el imagen de la primera semana ha sido circulando mi estudio y ... finalmente ... esta hecha. Han sido mas de 20 retas hasta al dia. Se deben terminarlas dentro de un periodo de dos semanas. De alguna manera este no es sirve para mi pero la inspiracion si sirve ... eventualmente. Si hace falta un poco de esta inspiracion, sugiero una visita a ese blog. Puede ser que haya algo que te antoje cortar una madera...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-8441529043819655135?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/8441529043819655135/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=8441529043819655135' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/8441529043819655135'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/8441529043819655135'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/02/jack-woodcut-grabado-en-madera-6x4-15-x.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwwJMiN82I/AAAAAAAAAoI/yAQJ6KI-uuQ/s72-c/Woodcut-Jack-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-467811921593165287</id><published>2009-02-08T08:42:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-02-08T08:42:00.242-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwwhn8ho-I/AAAAAAAAAoQ/vTm_4l3xM4c/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Griffin-WEB.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299664215724893154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 238px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwwhn8ho-I/AAAAAAAAAoQ/vTm_4l3xM4c/s320/Woodcuts-Griffin-WEB.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My 'Griffin' is not new to you but my news is... He received an Honorable Mention in Printmaking at the recent East End Art Guild's 10th Annual Juried Exhibition. Again, I was the only printmaker so it is an honor to be included after some tough jurying by Puerto Rican artists Francisco Rodon, Carlos Davila Rinaldi, and Nelson Sambolin. Hurrah once again for printmakers! If you get a chance, the show is at the Centro de Arte Angel 'Lito' Pena (Humacao) until 27 February. It's a great show!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Mi grabado en madera 'Griffin' ('Grifo') no es nuevo pero mis noticias si son... El recibio una Mencion Honorosa para Grabado en el recien Decima Exposicion Anual por Jurado del Gremio Artistico del Este. Otra vez, fui la unica artista de grabados por eso es un honor estar incluida despues de un jurado tan fuerte por los artistas puertorriquenos Francisco Rodon, Carlos Davila Rinaldi, y Nelson Sambolin. Una vez mas... que vivan los que hacen grabados. Si tienen la oportunidad, la exposicion estara en el Centro de Arte Angel 'Lito' Pena (Humacao) hasta el 27 de febrero. Es una exhibicion buenisima!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-467811921593165287?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/467811921593165287/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=467811921593165287' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/467811921593165287'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/467811921593165287'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/02/my-griffin-is-not-new-to-you-but-my.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwwhn8ho-I/AAAAAAAAAoQ/vTm_4l3xM4c/s72-c/Woodcuts-Griffin-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-7116420346148626879</id><published>2009-02-07T08:56:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-02-07T10:51:12.937-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='roadrunner'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='correcaminos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animales'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwzch6T7EI/AAAAAAAAAog/V5Hxt3WxrXs/s1600-h/2008-ABQ-Roadrunner.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299667426740530242" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwzch6T7EI/AAAAAAAAAog/V5Hxt3WxrXs/s320/2008-ABQ-Roadrunner.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This roadrunner lives in the space between my parents' home and the neighbors', a 10' X 30' patch of juniper and holly. We are all so accustomed to each other, he is a very cooperative model. I was so pleased to be able to take dozens of photos... he'll also become a woodcut but probably not this shot as most wouldn't recognize him without his tailfeathers!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Este correcaminos vive en el espacio entre la casa de mis padres y los vecinos, una area 3 por 9 metros de enebro y acebo. Estamos tan acostumbrados el uno al otro que resulta ser un model sumamente cooperativo. Felizmente tome docenas de fotos... el sera tambien un grabado en madera pero probablemente no este foto como la mayoria no lo reconocera sin sus plumas extremas.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-7116420346148626879?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/7116420346148626879/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=7116420346148626879' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7116420346148626879'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7116420346148626879'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/02/this-roadrunner-lives-in-space-between.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwzch6T7EI/AAAAAAAAAog/V5Hxt3WxrXs/s72-c/2008-ABQ-Roadrunner.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-7035984070388401956</id><published>2009-02-06T08:51:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2009-02-06T11:15:49.653-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animales'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwyXDd2Y8I/AAAAAAAAAoY/Q1qwsPOF-RU/s1600-h/Bosque-Deer.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299666233157116866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwyXDd2Y8I/AAAAAAAAAoY/Q1qwsPOF-RU/s320/Bosque-Deer.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;After two months of travel, I'm back home in my studio. I expect these deer will find themselves the subject of a woodcut. We spied them along the dusty road in the &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fws.gov/southwest/refuges/newmex/bosque/index.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bosque de Apache National Wildlife Refuge&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;, just 20 miles south of Socorro, New Mexico. It's a haven for migrating birds, northern visitors seeking warmer winter climes. The best time to visit is sunrise and sunset for the 'fly out' and 'fly in' of the birds. Of course, we were there around noon so saw few birds (cranes, geese) but we did catch these shy deer cautiously watching me approach with my camera.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Despues de dos meses de viaje, estoy de nuevo en mi estudio. Espero que estes ciervos sean models para un grabado de madera. Los habiamos espiado al lado del camino polvoriento en el &lt;a href="http://www.fws.gov/southwest/refuges/newmex/bosque/about.html"&gt;Bosque de Apache National Wildlife Refuge&lt;/a&gt; (parque nacional) a solo 32 kilometros al sur de Socorro, Nuevo Mexico. Es un refugio para aves migrando para el invierno del norte lejano al clima mas templado. El mejor tiempo para visitar es el amanecer y el atardecer para el vuelo en masa de los parajos. Claro... estuvimos alla al mediodia entonces vimos pocos aves (garzas, gansos) pero si espiabamos estes ciervos timidos vigilandome acercandoles con mi camera.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-7035984070388401956?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/7035984070388401956/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=7035984070388401956' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7035984070388401956'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7035984070388401956'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2009/02/after-two-months-of-travel-im-back-home.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SYwyXDd2Y8I/AAAAAAAAAoY/Q1qwsPOF-RU/s72-c/Bosque-Deer.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-5746281541285040240</id><published>2008-11-29T06:43:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2008-11-29T06:58:15.624-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oleo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oils'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/STEdBCrjaCI/AAAAAAAAAm0/YTSgZXSDyRI/s1600-h/Oils-Dead-calm-mini.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 223px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/STEdBCrjaCI/AAAAAAAAAm0/YTSgZXSDyRI/s320/Oils-Dead-calm-mini.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274028542364182562" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;'Tropical Calm' ~~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Serenidad Tropical'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oil 5"x7" ~~  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Oleo 13cm x 18cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Recently I returned to oil painting.  I'm having a one-woman show in February and will be combining my smaller woodcuts with small paintings.  It will be fun curating my prints to fit with the 'ocean' paintings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My husband liked this so much that it will be our yearly Christmas card, saving me the trouble of doing a woodcut... (which would probably have been ready to mail out after Three Kings Day-January 6).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Recientemente empeze de nuevo pintando en oleo.  En febrero tendre una exhibicion sola y planeo combinar mis grabados en madera con pinturas pequenas.  Seria interesante combinar los grabados con pinturas del mar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A mi marido le gusto tanto que sera nuestro tarjeta de Navidad este ano, asi ahorandome el tiempo de no hacer un grabado... que seria bueno porque probablemente serian listas para el correo despues del Dia del los Reyes Magos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-5746281541285040240?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/5746281541285040240/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=5746281541285040240' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/5746281541285040240'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/5746281541285040240'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/11/tropical-calm-serenidad-tropical-oil.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/STEdBCrjaCI/AAAAAAAAAm0/YTSgZXSDyRI/s72-c/Oils-Dead-calm-mini.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-8416438764400996871</id><published>2008-10-29T12:01:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-29T12:45:37.067-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='freighter'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SQiJC0GxKoI/AAAAAAAAAms/UQ4GOvfWgLc/s1600-h/Woodcuts-WEB-After-Weeks-at.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 228px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SQiJC0GxKoI/AAAAAAAAAms/UQ4GOvfWgLc/s320/Woodcuts-WEB-After-Weeks-at.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262606846022199938" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;'After Weeks at Sea, the Children Sight Land...'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Despues de semanas en el mar, los ninos avistan tierra...'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Size/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tamano:   &lt;/span&gt;5.5" x 8"&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; /  14cm x 20cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Edition:  50&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Happy news!!!  Three of my recent prints were accepted into the 10th Annual East End Art Guild Juried Exhibition here in Puerto Rico.  I was the only printmaker so the competition among watercolors, oils and acrylics was fierce.  We had three jurors, all well-known Puerto Rican artists:  Francisco Rodon, Carlos Davila and Nelson Sambolin.  I don't have the numbers but there were less than 60 pieces accepted... so hurrah for printmakers!  We &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;can&lt;/span&gt; compete with the big guys.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This little piece that made it in was created for a recent Baren exchange so many of you readers actually own it.  The other two pieces were my 'Antorcha', another Baren exchange piece, and 'The Griffin', a Solstice exchange piece, both of which many of you may have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Felices noticias!!!  De mis grabados en madera recientes hay tres que fueron aceptados al Decima Exhibicion Anual Jurado del East End Art Guild.  Era la unica que presento grabados en este competicion dura entre acuarelas, oleos, y acrilicos.  Tuvimos 3 jueces, todos artistas Puertorriquenos bien reconocidos:   Francisco Rodon, Carlos Davila, y Nelson Sambolin.  No tengo en mano los datos exactos pero habian menos de 60 obras aceptadas...  entonces un gran OLE para artistas de grabados.  &lt;/span&gt;Si&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; podemos competir entre los grandes del arte.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Este es una de ellas y como fue hecha para un intercambio recien de Baren hay muchos de vosotros que lo tienen en casa.  Las otras dos fueron 'Antorcha', otra de un intercambio de Baren, y 'El Grifo', de un intercambio del Solsticio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-8416438764400996871?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/8416438764400996871/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=8416438764400996871' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/8416438764400996871'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/8416438764400996871'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/10/after-weeks-at-sea-children-sight-land.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SQiJC0GxKoI/AAAAAAAAAms/UQ4GOvfWgLc/s72-c/Woodcuts-WEB-After-Weeks-at.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-5845600966899423187</id><published>2008-10-21T07:25:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-21T07:47:57.570-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='coqui'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SP28ZArXL1I/AAAAAAAAAmk/6LwH5edpSOk/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Naturaleza-pkg.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SP28ZArXL1I/AAAAAAAAAmk/6LwH5edpSOk/s400/Woodcuts-Naturaleza-pkg.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259567077703233362" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Naturaleza Taina'&lt;br /&gt;Woodcut ~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Image size/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;tamano del imagen&lt;/span&gt;:  5"x3" / 12.5cm x 7.5cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Edition:  75&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Again, a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://cgi.ebay.com/NFAC-Taino-WOODCUT-ART-Native-Tribal-D-Cutter_W0QQitemZ280278605867QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item280278605867&amp;amp;_trkparms=72%3A1240%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&amp;amp;_trksid=p3286.c0.m14"&gt;Nibblefest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; offering on eBay.

The inspiration came from animal shapes seen in our billowing Caribbean clouds.  To enhance the 'escape', I had the clouds scudding one way and the sailboat fleeing in the opposite direction.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;Available here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Este grabado en blanco y negro fue hecho para el Ano Nuevo Chino 'Ano de la Rata'.  La inspiracion vino de las formas de animales que se ven en nuestras nubes caribenas.  Para dar enfasis al 'escape' puse las nubes yendo por un lado y el velero escapandose en la direccion opuesta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;De venta aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-7854632535290518470?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/7854632535290518470/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=7854632535290518470' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7854632535290518470'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7854632535290518470'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/07/escaping-rat-race-escapandose-del.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SGuyAhPeRRI/AAAAAAAAAa8/cbJ6yoO4rSo/s72-c/Woodcuts-Escaping-the-Ratra.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-1089167140797190581</id><published>2008-06-26T05:22:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2008-06-26T05:40:31.830-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='desnudo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nude'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pintura'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oleo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oils'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SGNgQdgWPdI/AAAAAAAAAas/pnxGmK8zUj4/s1600-h/2008-NFAC-1Nude-in-the-mist.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SGNgQdgWPdI/AAAAAAAAAas/pnxGmK8zUj4/s320/2008-NFAC-1Nude-in-the-mist.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216118629339643346" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;"Emerging from the Gray"&lt;br /&gt;Oil Study ~ June/Junio 2008&lt;br /&gt;10"x10" canvas&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Another month and another eBay Nibblefest Art Contest entry.

It was a perfect way to demonstrate how woodcuts evolve, making the tourists realize just how complex a relief print can be, so unlike computer generated art today.  When I return from my New Mexico stay, I'll be printing this using a lovely beige handmade paper with black ink and gold powder... very elegant for a change!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;El mes pasado en El Bosque Lluvial de El Yunque pude cortar la madera para el intercambio de grabados Baren.  Fue el modo perfecto de demostrar como se hacen grabados, haciendo mas sabios a los turistas sobre la manera enrededada de un grabado en relieve, tan diferente del arte generado en la computadora hoy dia.  Cuando regreso de mi estancia en Nuevo Mejico, sacare grabados usando un lindo papel hecho a mano color beige con tinta negra y polvo de oro...  muy elegante para variar!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-6786142416302974488?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/6786142416302974488/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=6786142416302974488' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6786142416302974488'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6786142416302974488'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/04/at-el-yunque-rainforest-last-month-i.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SA9232-JE1I/AAAAAAAAAaU/oBkr-SePq8A/s72-c/Woodcuts-Torch-Flower-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-977823019887358694</id><published>2008-04-23T13:20:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2008-04-23T13:47:51.123-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mixed media'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SA9wK2-JE0I/AAAAAAAAAaM/KFZcaITppgc/s1600-h/Iguana2-WEB.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SA9wK2-JE0I/AAAAAAAAAaM/KFZcaITppgc/s320/Iguana2-WEB.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192492227238630210" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The monthly &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;amp;rd=1&amp;amp;item=280219539259&amp;amp;ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&amp;amp;ih=018"&gt;eBay Nibblefest Art Contest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; is on again. My entry this month is a rather unlovely 'Iguana' watercolor with an acrylic background...  I guess it is properly a 'mixed media' piece.  I don't expect many bidders, as this month's 'reptile' theme is not your average cup of tea.  But he will go to an 'aficionado' of the cold blooded animal world who will happily give him a home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nibblefest rules are that each artist put up one piece which follows the theme ('reptile' this month) and be available for auction at the rock bottom starting price of 99 cents. Last month's piece went to a lovely person in Florida...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-977823019887358694?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/977823019887358694/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=977823019887358694' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/977823019887358694'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/977823019887358694'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/04/monthly-ebay-nibblefest-art-contest-is.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SA9wK2-JE0I/AAAAAAAAAaM/KFZcaITppgc/s72-c/Iguana2-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-2894932348521535017</id><published>2008-04-11T16:10:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-04-11T16:11:39.997-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='linocut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R__DcKQxLJI/AAAAAAAAAaE/R2D-i-fqUxw/s1600-h/Linocut-Baby-Leatherback-WE.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R__DcKQxLJI/AAAAAAAAAaE/R2D-i-fqUxw/s320/Linocut-Baby-Leatherback-WE.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5188080184312540306" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;"Baby Leatherback" ~~ "Bebe Tinglar"&lt;br /&gt;Linocut ~~ 2008&lt;br /&gt;Size/Tamano:  4.5"x4" ~~ 12 cm x 10 cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The Sierra Club is a sponsor of the &lt;a href="http://puertorico.sierraclub.org/RegistroParada08.pdf"&gt;Festival del Tinglar in Luquillo&lt;/a&gt; at the end of April.  It is in celebration of the new ecological nature preserves along the northeast of Puerto Rico where the turtles hatch.  Our group from the monthly El Yunque art exhibit will have a booth.  I'm not sure art is really a hot seller at this event.  There will be a parade (children in turtle costumes), food, and artisans.  &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I wanted to have something for the children...  so I came up with this little baby leatherback.   In situations like this I have two prices.  For adults, they pay full price.  If they are accompanied by a child, they only pay $2.00.  It always gets some smiles but they also buy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Purchase &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;El Sierra Club es patrocinador de la &lt;a href="http://puertorico.sierraclub.org/RegistroParada08.pdf"&gt;Festival del Tinglar en Luquillo&lt;/a&gt; los fines de abril.  Se celebra la nueva reserva natural del corredor ecologico del noreste de Puerto Rico donde crian las tortugas.  Nuestro grupo de la exhibicion de arte mensual en El Yunque tendra un puesto.  No estoy seguro de que el arte sera en demanda en este evento.  Habra un desfile (ninos vestidos de tortugas), comida, y artesanos.  &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Queria tener algo para los ninos...  por eso hize este tortuga bebe.  En casos como estos tengo dos precios.  Para los adultos, pagan el precio regular.  Si estan acompanados de un nino, pagan solo $2.00.  Siempre se rien pero tambien compran.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;De venta &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-2894932348521535017?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/2894932348521535017/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=2894932348521535017' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/2894932348521535017'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/2894932348521535017'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/04/baby-leatherback-bebe-tinglar-linocut.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R__DcKQxLJI/AAAAAAAAAaE/R2D-i-fqUxw/s72-c/Linocut-Baby-Leatherback-WE.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-7686663836029116510</id><published>2008-04-08T11:19:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-04-08T11:25:05.876-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R_pIDZZVXhI/AAAAAAAAAZk/hKbgwIvLAhA/s1600-h/Women%27s-Show-Doll-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R_pIDZZVXhI/AAAAAAAAAZk/hKbgwIvLAhA/s200/Women%27s-Show-Doll-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5186537144064499218" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Dolls have never been my thing.

How could I relate to this?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Then I recalled I loved drawing paper dolls, especially designing new clothes using crayons, pencils and scissors... and the creative juices started.&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Entonces pueden imaginar mi dilema cuando tenia que presentar un muneco para una exhibicion recien.

Fue hecho con una tinta umber bien oscuro en papel (arroz) blanco y entonces puse en ciertas partes un pigmento de oro en polvo con un pincel.  Lo aplique inmediatamente despues de sacar el grabado para que el polvo adhere bien a la tinta viscosa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;De venta &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-783511331821692083?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/783511331821692083/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=783511331821692083' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/783511331821692083'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/783511331821692083'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/04/griffin-el-grifo-woodcut-2008-grabado.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R_fc3ZZVXdI/AAAAAAAAAY4/FY-fiK3QRcY/s72-c/Woodcuts-Griffin-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-3598905502736015377</id><published>2008-04-05T12:51:00.013-04:00</published><updated>2008-04-05T18:19:22.558-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R_euIJZVXcI/AAAAAAAAAYw/mdqQzxRrUY4/s1600-h/Woodcuts-This-Little-Pig-WE.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R_euIJZVXcI/AAAAAAAAAYw/mdqQzxRrUY4/s320/Woodcuts-This-Little-Pig-WE.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5185804950924778946" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;'This Little Pig...'  ~~ &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Este cerdito...'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Woodcut  ~~  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Grabado de madera&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;2008  ~~  Edition/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Edicion&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;:  100&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Size/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tamano:  4.5" x4"~~12 cmX10 cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Paper&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;/Papel:  Sumi rice paper&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Ink&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;/Tinta:  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Oil-based relief&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;  ~~ Tinta oleo para relieve&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;"&gt;This image was created to celebrate the &lt;a href="http://www.barenforum.org/new_year/pigs/pigsgallery.html"&gt;Chinese astrological Year of the Boar&lt;/a&gt; (or Pig) in 2007.

The theme was the Chinese New Year.  Being somewhat tired of the more traditional animals, I decided to make a print with a 'southwestern' flavor.  Unfortunately, I was unable to find anything in the American Southwest that would work for 'monkey' so borrowed the Central American spider monkey.  So the animals are:  field mouse (rat), roadrunner (rooster), coyote (dog) javelina (pig), lizard (dragon), rattlesnake (snake), mustang (horse), bighorn sheep (sheep), spider monkey (monkey), longhorn bull (ox) puma (tiger), and jackrabbit (hare).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Available&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt; &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: georgia;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Palatino Linotype&amp;quot;; font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Este grabado fue hecho para un &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" href="http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&amp;amp;threadid=470700"&gt;intercambio de grabados en Wet Canvas&lt;/a&gt;.  El tema era el Ano Nuevo Chino.  Un poco cansada de los animales mas tradicionales, decidi hacer mi grabado con sabor del sudoeste.  Desgraciadamente no podia encontrar nada adecuado para 'mono' ... por eso use el mono arana centroamericano.  Entonces los animales son:  raton (rata), correcamino (gallo), coyote (perro), javelina (jabali), legarto (dragon), serpiente de cascabel (culebra), mustango (caballo), carnero (carnero), mono arana (mono), ganado longhorn (buey), puma (tigre), y liebre grande norteamericano  (conejo).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De venta &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=12609"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-6134918250844254888?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/6134918250844254888/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=6134918250844254888' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6134918250844254888'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6134918250844254888'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/04/western-chinese-new-year-linocut.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R_bqgJZVXbI/AAAAAAAAAYo/a_1-B0DNOKw/s72-c/Chinese-New-Year-final-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-3349442838691082109</id><published>2008-03-21T13:56:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-21T14:14:40.869-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='linocut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caribbean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R-P3IZZVXaI/AAAAAAAAAYg/jgeUA1_otRU/s1600-h/Linocuts-El+Jardin+-Web-2006.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R-P3IZZVXaI/AAAAAAAAAYg/jgeUA1_otRU/s320/Linocuts-El+Jardin+-Web-2006.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180255720034360738" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;amp;rd=1&amp;amp;item=280209153148&amp;amp;ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&amp;amp;ih=018"&gt;Nibblefest Art Contest on eBay&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; is held every month.  My entry this month is 'El Jardin' ('The Garden') which a lot of you have already seen.  Nibblefest rules are that each artist put up one piece which follows the theme ('secret garden' this month) and be available for auction at a starting price of 99 cents.  Last month's piece went to an artist friend from WetCanvas.com.  I'm hoping this month's entry goes to some as yet unknown printmaker out there...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Cada mes en eBay hay un concurso llamado &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;amp;rd=1&amp;amp;item=280209153148&amp;amp;ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&amp;amp;ih=018"&gt;'Nibblefest Art Contest.'&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;   La entrada mia para este mes es 'El Jardin' la que muchos la han visto.  Las reglas para Nibblefest son las siguientes:  la pieza tiene que ser del tema mensual ('jardin secreto' esta mes), ofrecido en subasta con un precio inicial de 99 centavos (US$).  La entrada mia del mes pasado fue ganado por una artista amiga mia de WetCanvas.com.  Ojala que la entrada de este mes va a un artista de grabados desconocido por alla...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-3349442838691082109?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3349442838691082109/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=3349442838691082109' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3349442838691082109'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3349442838691082109'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/03/nibblefest-art-contest-on-ebay-is-held.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R-P3IZZVXaI/AAAAAAAAAYg/jgeUA1_otRU/s72-c/Linocuts-El+Jardin+-Web-2006.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-1582596309877602469</id><published>2008-03-15T19:03:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-15T19:24:21.837-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Albuquerque'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oleo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oils'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hollyhock'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R9xV7nPLa9I/AAAAAAAAAYQ/NVgDEmZV2Ac/s1600-h/Oils-Dondiego-de-dia-2008.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R9xV7nPLa9I/AAAAAAAAAYQ/NVgDEmZV2Ac/s400/Oils-Dondiego-de-dia-2008.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178108154202516434" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;'Hollyhock' ~~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Malva Loca'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oil on panel  ~~  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Oleo en panel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7" x 5" ~~ &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;18cm x 12.5cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;On a recent trip to Albuquerque, I took my camera on my morning walk with my mother.

Last month we had him down here in Puerto Rico for a 5-day figurative painting workshop.  It has been years since I've painted seriously in oils, having spent so much time these last few years with my printmaking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Day One was a morning demo by Rob and an afternoon session where we worked blocking in shadows and trying to forget about the shapes hidden by shadows.  Definitely a challenge!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.robertliberace.com/"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.robertliberace.com/"&gt;Robert Liberace&lt;/a&gt; es un artista fabuloso y un instructor genial y generoso.

I was ready to give away my brushes and get back to my beloved knives.  What a frustrating day!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Miercoles era mi dia de 'lagrimas'.  Otra vez una demo y luego pasabamos la tarde con la cara...  PUCHICA!!!  Esta cara fue pintada y quitada toda la tarde.

Rob pintaba  al lado de nosotros... entonces pase la mayoria del tiempo andando entre mi caballete y el suyo, absorbiendo el 'como' de hacerlo de Rob y tratando de incorporarlo en la pieza mia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-1100490416896861806?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/1100490416896861806/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=1100490416896861806' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1100490416896861806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1100490416896861806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/02/robert-liberace-is-fabulous-artist-and.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R63wNrCR75I/AAAAAAAAAXw/Bq2zoZlTEgs/s72-c/Blog-Liberace-%28male-nude-sh.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-4830512473706404592</id><published>2008-01-26T21:26:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-01-26T22:22:06.962-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Santa Fe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5vecXJHA9I/AAAAAAAAAW4/h5L8L5vLNkI/s1600-h/Blog-2007-New-Mexico-Art-Mu.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5vecXJHA9I/AAAAAAAAAW4/h5L8L5vLNkI/s400/Blog-2007-New-Mexico-Art-Mu.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159962376912962514" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5vecnJHA-I/AAAAAAAAAXA/p1XQeaPFsWk/s1600-h/Blog-2007-New-Mexico-Art-Ic.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5vecnJHA-I/AAAAAAAAAXA/p1XQeaPFsWk/s400/Blog-2007-New-Mexico-Art-Ic.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159962381207929826" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustave_Baumann"&gt;Gustave Baumann&lt;/a&gt; has long been one of my favorite printmakers.  While in Santa Fe early this month I took advantage of a &lt;a href="http://www.mfasantafe.org/display.php?menu=view_exhib&amp;amp;ex_id=40&amp;amp;ex_state=exhib_current"&gt;modest exhibition of his work&lt;/a&gt; at the New Mexico Museum of Art.  It was thrilling to see his plates, prints, and marionettes.  Though I was disappointed that it was a small showing (only one room), it is well worth the visit the next time you are in Santa Fe.  It will run through September 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had planned to spend time walking our famous Canyon Road later that day, enjoying all the galleries, but the wind was bitter, too cold for one unaccustomed to northern winter weather.  Perhaps the next time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustave_Baumann"&gt;Gustave Baumann&lt;/a&gt; ha sido uno de mis artistas predilectos por much tiempo.  Mientras estuve en Santa Fe  este mes tenia la oportunidad de ver &lt;a href="http://www.mfasantafe.org/display.php?menu=view_exhib&amp;amp;ex_id=40&amp;amp;ex_state=exhib_current"&gt;una exhibicion pequena de sus obras&lt;/a&gt; en el Museo de Arte de Nuevo Mejico.  Fue tremendo ver las placas, grabados, y marionetas.  Aunque senti frustracion por el tamano de la exhibicion (solo una sala) vale la pena verla la proxima vez que visiten a Santa Fe.  Durara hasta el septiembre de 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tenia buenas intenciones de caminar por el famoso Canyon Road gozandome de todas las galerias pero el viento era feroz, demasiado frio para gente como yo no acostumbrada a la temporada de invierno del norte.  Quizas la proxima vez...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-4830512473706404592?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/4830512473706404592/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=4830512473706404592' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/4830512473706404592'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/4830512473706404592'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/01/gustave-baumann-has-long-been-one-of-my.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5vecXJHA9I/AAAAAAAAAW4/h5L8L5vLNkI/s72-c/Blog-2007-New-Mexico-Art-Mu.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-6600048376116367220</id><published>2008-01-24T21:06:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-01-24T21:07:14.077-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='geese'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Albuquerque'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Southwest'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='goose'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5gADHJHA8I/AAAAAAAAAWw/ARft9ghPPuk/s1600-h/Blog-2007-NM-Plaza-geese-ic.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5gADHJHA8I/AAAAAAAAAWw/ARft9ghPPuk/s400/Blog-2007-NM-Plaza-geese-ic.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158873426609767362" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I revisited my models, the Canadian geese that live through the winter at the Rio Grande Nature Center.  Driving around in the North Valley of Albuquerque and the adjoining village of Corrales, you can see huge flocks of these birds settled in fields full of the remains of hay and alfalfa.  They will be here until spring when they head north again to Canada...  very handsome birds which I will need to use for another woodcut.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Visite mis modelos, los Gansos Canadienses, que viven durante el invierno alrededor del Centro de Naturaleza del Rio Grande.  Andando por el Valle del Norte de Albuquerque y el pueblito contiguo de Corrales se ve bandadas enormes de estos pajaros poblando el campo lleno de los restos de heno y alfalfa.  Quedaran aqui hasta la primavera cuando regresaran al norte a Canada...  unos pajaros hermosos los cuales tendre que usar una vez mas como modelos para otro grabado en madera.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-6600048376116367220?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/6600048376116367220/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=6600048376116367220' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6600048376116367220'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/6600048376116367220'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2008/01/i-revisited-my-models-canadian-geese.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5gADHJHA8I/AAAAAAAAAWw/ARft9ghPPuk/s72-c/Blog-2007-NM-Plaza-geese-ic.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-967459256788571938</id><published>2008-01-23T22:42:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-01-23T23:02:03.654-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='travel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5f7b3JHA7I/AAAAAAAAAWo/LthsokiRvmc/s1600-h/Blog-2007-NM-Plaza-church2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R5f7b3JHA7I/AAAAAAAAAWo/LthsokiRvmc/s320/Blog-2007-NM-Plaza-church2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158868354253390770" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I spent December and the first part of January in my home state of New Mexico.

Living so far away, these visits are a welcome renewal of my connections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Here is the church on the plaza in Albuquerque's Old Town, San Felipe de Neri Church.

I knew I wanted to do a woodcut but couldn't think of how to use it.

I recently entered several of my prints in the only yearly juried show here in Puerto Rico and seven were accepted!!!  Because the competition is pretty much the more traditional paintings (oils, watercolors, pastels) and sculpture, I'd not entered my prints before, feeling they may not hold up well.  It turns out that all three jurors are artist professors at the Universidad Sagrado Corazon which has a very strong printmaking program and are very receptive to printmaking!   Two woodcuts, one linocut, two monotypes, and two monoprints ... now to frame them appropriately for the show in February 2008.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Estoy sumamente feliz!!!  Recientamente  entre varios grabados mios en la exhibicion anual jurada, la unica de este tipo en Puerto Rico, y siete grabados fueron elegidos!  A causa de que la competicion usual es de pinturas (oleos, acuarelas, pastel) y escultura, nunca presente mis grabados antes, pensando que no valdrian.  Resulta de que los jueces son artistas profesoras en la Universidad Sagrado Corazon, la cual tiene un programa de arte de grabados muy intensivo.  Las tres fueron muy receptivas al grabado!   Dos grabados de madera, un linocut, dos monotipos y dos monoprints ... ahora a enmarcarlos bien para la exhibicion en enero de 2008.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-2376363277928407358?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/2376363277928407358/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=2376363277928407358' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/2376363277928407358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/2376363277928407358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/11/i-am-over-moon-i-recently-entered.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-1981456755351295475</id><published>2007-11-19T13:25:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2007-11-19T13:49:03.599-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cacti'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R0HHPqJPEbI/AAAAAAAAAVY/PGZbeOGp9DE/s1600-h/Succulent-Etsy-Final-Print.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R0HHPqJPEbI/AAAAAAAAAVY/PGZbeOGp9DE/s400/Succulent-Etsy-Final-Print.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5134604122004066738" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt; 'Succulent'  ~~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;'Suculento'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Woodcut Relief Print ~~ &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Grabado en madera&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Baren Exchange #34&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; ~~ Intercambio Baren no. 34&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Edition/&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;edicion&lt;/span&gt;: 100&lt;br /&gt;Image size 7.5"x5" ~~  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tamano 19cm X 13cm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;It fascinates me the way the thorny edges of a cactus cast shadows on each other. I cut this piece from all-shina ply and hand-printed it with a dark chocolate colored Daniel Smith oil-based relief ink on textured mulberry paper (50% Kozo, 50% recycled paper). The paper is a current favorite of mine and has a slight yellow cast with grey flecks which enhance the organic feel.

Corte esta pieza de una madera 'all-shina ply' and saque el grabado usando tinta Daniel Smith (oil-based) que tiene un color chocolate bien rico.  El papel es mi favorito en esos dias ... el dicho 'natural mulberry' que contiene 50% fibra Kozo y 50% papel reciclado.  El papel tiene un color un poco amarillo con manchitas color gris que dan enfasis al sentido organico del grabado.  Este grabado es parte de la coleccion de Baren que sera localizado en el Museo de Arte de la Universidad de Kentucky en el recinto de Lexington.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-1981456755351295475?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/1981456755351295475/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=1981456755351295475' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1981456755351295475'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1981456755351295475'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/11/succulent-suculento-woodcut-relief.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/R0HHPqJPEbI/AAAAAAAAAVY/PGZbeOGp9DE/s72-c/Succulent-Etsy-Final-Print.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-8936267624211686038</id><published>2007-10-10T18:26:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-10-10T18:54:16.609-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cactus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Vermont'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='countryside'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Puerto Rico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cacti'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rw1VW45jV5I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/EJYZIm0k_bY/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Cactus-Cutting-wit.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rw1VW45jV5I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/EJYZIm0k_bY/s400/Woodcuts-Cactus-Cutting-wit.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5119842203109382034" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rw1UYY5jV4I/AAAAAAAAAVI/f-SlAn32jS4/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Cactus-photo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rw1UYY5jV4I/AAAAAAAAAVI/f-SlAn32jS4/s400/Woodcuts-Cactus-photo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5119841129367558018" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;A cactus woodcut is taking form under my knives.

This is my favorite photo from our vacation as it seems to capture the beauty of the foliage and the weather.  It has been overcast and rainy most of the time and the locals lament the lack of color this year.  However, being accustomed to lush tropical green all year, this is a glorious experience for us non-locals...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Vermont al Atardecer...  Este es mi foto favorito de nuestra vacacion porque captura la belleza del cambio de color otonal y la temporada.  Ha sido nubloso y lluvioso casi todo el tiempo y la gente de aqui dicen que no hay los colores de siempre.  Sin embargo, como estamos acostumbrados al verde tropical que dura todo el ano, este es una experiencia gloriosa para nosotros que no somos de Vermont...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-5574593119966851092?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/5574593119966851092/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=5574593119966851092' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/5574593119966851092'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/5574593119966851092'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/10/vermont-at-dusk.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RwzNzI5jV3I/AAAAAAAAAVA/B3IOWT_3sP8/s72-c/Vermont-trip-Rainbow.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-7098094080129374942</id><published>2007-10-05T23:32:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2007-10-05T23:51:59.217-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foliage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='leaves'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Vermont'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fall'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='otono'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RwcDKY5jV2I/AAAAAAAAAU4/MoFtOGuN9yk/s1600-h/Vermont-trip-026.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RwcDKY5jV2I/AAAAAAAAAU4/MoFtOGuN9yk/s400/Vermont-trip-026.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5118062978547275618" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Glorious fall ...  I've  been busy in my studio with a lot of projects but, finally, we are off on a quest to find gold... the beauty of fall foliage.  We started in Florida Wednesday, driving up through various states.  The drive north began with this leaf I spotted in South Carolina and it's been getting better the further north we go.  Tonight we rest in New Jersey and tomorrow the visual feast will begin... in Vermont.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Otono glorioso ...  He estado ocupada en mi estudio con varios proyectos pero, al fin, estamos en una gran busqueda de oro... la belleza de las hojas en otono en los Estados Unidos.  Empezabamos por auto en Florida el miercoles, pasando por varios estados.  Lo primero que vi era esta hoja en Carolina del Sur y ha estado mejorando lo mas norte que vamos.  Esta noche estamos descansando en Nueva Jersey y manana empieza la fiesta visual cuando llegamos al estado de Vermont.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-7098094080129374942?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/7098094080129374942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=7098094080129374942' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7098094080129374942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7098094080129374942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/10/glorious-fall.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RwcDKY5jV2I/AAAAAAAAAU4/MoFtOGuN9yk/s72-c/Vermont-trip-026.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-4370846566875493523</id><published>2007-07-28T11:38:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-07-28T12:27:14.299-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='solar plate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Akua-Kolor'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Inking a solar plate is the same as inking any intaglio plate, the only difference is that it's a little easier to flip out of your hands because it is so lightweight.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Aplicando tinta a una plancha solar es lo mismo que cualquier plancha intaglio, la unica diferencia es que es facil tirarla al piso porque es sumamente liviana.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The first step is smearing the ink all over the surface, making sure it goes in all the small crevices. I like to use small pieces of old mat board for this. If using Akua-Kolor intaglio ink, it's best to stir it up, deep from the bottom, before using as I find it tends to settle a bit.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Primero hay que untar la tinta por todas partes, asegurandose de que entra en todos las grietas. Me gusta usar pedazos pequenos de 'mat board' para esto. Si estan usando tinta Akua-Kolor, es mejor revolverla bien antes de usarla, hasta el fondo, porque tiene una tendencia de separarse un poco.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rqtld9TZSAI/AAAAAAAAAUg/t0VE-cuk5rs/s1600-h/Solar-Ceibas-Church-prewipe.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092275369019000834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rqtld9TZSAI/AAAAAAAAAUg/t0VE-cuk5rs/s400/Solar-Ceibas-Church-prewipe.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Above you can see the ink spread on the plate.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Arriba se ve la tinta en la plancha.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RqtleNTZSBI/AAAAAAAAAUo/hyhJsRSYBFs/s1600-h/Solar-Ceibas-Church-Inking.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092275373313968146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RqtleNTZSBI/AAAAAAAAAUo/hyhJsRSYBFs/s400/Solar-Ceibas-Church-Inking.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Next I use the dirtier tarltan to remove most of the ink. As you can see there is still ink on the clear parts of the plate. Then I use the cleaner tarltan to take off the rest of the ink. Tarltan comes heavily starched and lightly so. I prefer the lighter. Either way, wiping a plate takes some practice or you can remove too much ink resulting in a very light, unevenly inked print.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Luego uso el 'tarltan' mas sucio para quitar la mayoria de la tinta. Como se puede ver todavia hay tinta en las partes claras de la plancha. Entonces uso el 'tarltan' mas limpio para quitar el resto de la tinta. Tarltan viene con mucha almidon o con poca. Prefiero el con poquito. De todos modos, limpiando una plancha toma un poco de practica o se puede quitar demasiado tinta resultando en un grabado con lineas ligeras o desiguales.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RqtleNTZSCI/AAAAAAAAAUw/fEnsJ-unKbM/s1600-h/Solar-Ceibas-Church-print-r.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092275373313968162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RqtleNTZSCI/AAAAAAAAAUw/fEnsJ-unKbM/s400/Solar-Ceibas-Church-print-r.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The wiped plate is ready for paper and blankets on the press bed...

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My latest print, 'Ceiba's Church', is a solar print on Fabriano Uno paper, using Akua-Kolor intaglio ink (lamp black). It first started as a pen and ink drawing, which was then reversed onto a transparency.  I prefer the softer look of the print over the stark black and white of the original. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mi grabado mas recien, 'Iglesia de Ceiba', es un grabado solar en papel Fabriano Uno, usando tinta intaglio de Akua-Kolor. El proceso empezo como un dibujo en tinta china, que fue transferido en el reverso a una tranparencia.  Prefiero el efecto suave del grabado comparado al chocante blanco y negro del original.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-927477375161690358?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/927477375161690358/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=927477375161690358' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/927477375161690358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/927477375161690358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/07/ceibas-church-4.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rqe719TZRyI/AAAAAAAAASw/_uxAkf0Gt3k/s72-c/Solar-Ceibas-Church-Drawing.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-2495681175481903627</id><published>2007-07-21T22:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-07-21T22:32:09.049-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Espana'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oleo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Spain'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oils'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RqK9UdTZRvI/AAAAAAAAASY/VKA-LH5ld60/s1600-h/Rota+doorway.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5089838688043091698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RqK9UdTZRvI/AAAAAAAAASY/VKA-LH5ld60/s400/Rota+doorway.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;'Sol y Sombra' ('Sun and Shadow') - oleo/oil&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hace unos anos pase una temporada tranquila en el pueblo de Rota en el sur de Espana.

En este grabado de madera quizo dar la sensacion de la vegetacion densa de la selva tropical con los arboles viejos, las enredaderas, y los bromeliad. Afortunadamente con el Parque Nacional El Yunque solo unas millas distante, tengo mucha inspiracion.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-7344769359348540677?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/7344769359348540677/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=7344769359348540677' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7344769359348540677'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/7344769359348540677'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/07/rainforest-woodcut-7x10-selva-tropical.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RpvAjUARKVI/AAAAAAAAARw/briJilHk4ro/s72-c/Woodcuts-Rainforest-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-6033939652219244225</id><published>2007-07-15T16:01:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-07-15T16:12:26.906-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Baren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rpp970ARKUI/AAAAAAAAARo/WiU5or9feHQ/s1600-h/Blog-Baren-32-exchange.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5087517195593918786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rpp970ARKUI/AAAAAAAAARo/WiU5or9feHQ/s400/Blog-Baren-32-exchange.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Collating the prints / &lt;em&gt;El cotejo de grabados&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The &lt;a href="http://www.barenforum.org/"&gt;Baren Forum &lt;/a&gt;Print Exchange #32 is very close to being ready to go out to all the patient participants!

I don't mind the people watching... that always seems to animate me. However, I find the heat and the glare on the canvas somewhat disturbing because I feel I'm painting duller than I should be. But when I get home in the studio I'm pleasantly surprised that the painting 'works'.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This was done at Luquillo Beach, just minutes from my home. What attracted me was the dappled shadows on the sand from the enormous coconut palms.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pintando al aire libre siempre es un reto, especialmente para mi. No me molesta la gente que me mira... parece que me anima. Sin embargo, encuentro que el calor y el reflejo del sol en el lienzo me turban porque siento que estoy pintando con colores menos brillante que deberia. Pero al llegar al estudio estoy felizmente asombrada de que la pintura 'funciona'.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Este fue hecho en la playa de Luquillo, unos pocos minutos de la casa. Lo que me atrayo era la sombra en la arena de los cocos enormes.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-3215534579804189398?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3215534579804189398/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=3215534579804189398' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3215534579804189398'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3215534579804189398'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/07/beach-path-oil-8x8-sendero-la-playa.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rol7XFlJ33I/AAAAAAAAARY/WKe87hH_Fow/s72-c/2007-Sendero-3-Plein-Aire-8.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-7886413503334012718</id><published>2007-07-01T18:47:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-07-01T19:55:42.245-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RogvsFlJ3yI/AAAAAAAAAQw/89zUgJ7YdbY/s1600-h/2007-ABQ-Acoma-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5082364613946367778" style="DISPLAY: block;

It's always very flattering to be tagged, especially when 'thinking’ is involved.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So now it's my turn to name 5 bloggers whose blogs I enjoy and, while they may not blog frequently, are always a pleasure to read and digest. I always read the following, alphabetically by first name (to avoid showing favorites):&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Andy and his &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://studiodiary.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wood Engraver&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Anita and her &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://am-art.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Am-Art: An Artistic Journal&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Annie and her &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://woodblockdreams.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Woodblock Dreams&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mlyon.com/blog/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mike Lyon's Moku Hanga&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vivien and her &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://vivienb.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;paintings prints and stuff &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If the named above choose to tag their favorite thinking bloggers, the participation rules are simple:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thethinkingblog.com/2007/02/thinking-blogger-awards_11.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Link to this post&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Optional: Proudly display the &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/421/thinkingblogger2ql6.jpg"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Thinking Blogger Award'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; with a link to the post that you wrote (here is an alternative &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5020/thinkingbloggerpf8.jpg"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;gold&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; version if &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/421/thinkingblogger2ql6.jpg"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;silver&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; doesn't fit your blog).&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Imaginase mi sorpresa al recibir el premio del ‘Thinking Blogger’ (el blogger que piensa) de mi companero, DBR del &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://dailyartmasomenos.blogspot.com/2007/06/thinking-blogger-award.html"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Daily Art (mas o menos)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.

The requirements were a 6" square print using the element's letter and number.  Nitrogen is N and 7.  In researching I initially wanted to deal with diving (as a former scuba instructor) and the effects on the body of nitrogen under pressure... but discovered nitrogen is found in all living things and thus changed the focus of my print.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;'Nitrogeno' fue mi contribucion para el &lt;a href="http://home.comcast.net/~clarksbarn/periodic/elements.html"&gt;Proyecto de Grabado de la Tabla Periodica de Elementos 2007&lt;/a&gt;.  Los requisitos era un grabado tamano 15cm cuadrado usando la letra y el numero del elemento.  Nitrogeno es N y 7.  Inicialmente quise un tema que trataba de buzear (como soy maestra de buzeo jubilada) y los efectos de nitrogeno baja presion en el cuerpo... pero descubri que el nitrogeno esta presente en todo que vive y entonces cambie el foco de mi grabado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-588560654289947341?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/588560654289947341/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=588560654289947341' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/588560654289947341'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/588560654289947341'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/06/nitrogen-woodcut-using-graphic-chemical.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rn7uGT8YzdI/AAAAAAAAAQU/YU-E6Xko_o0/s72-c/Woodcuts-Nitrogen-Periodic+Table.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-4593442609303482616</id><published>2007-06-16T10:22:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-06-16T10:33:14.723-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='algodones'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuevo Mejico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flores'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cottonwoods'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flowers'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RnPy7T8YzZI/AAAAAAAAAP0/sj1V_naVzgU/s1600-h/2007-ABQ-Nature-center-path.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5076668305756442002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RnPy7T8YzZI/AAAAAAAAAP0/sj1V_naVzgU/s400/2007-ABQ-Nature-center-path.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RnPy7j8YzaI/AAAAAAAAAP8/GO9cUtwye4A/s1600-h/2007-ABQ-Nature-center-weed.jpg"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5076668310051409314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RnPy7j8YzaI/AAAAAAAAAP8/GO9cUtwye4A/s400/2007-ABQ-Nature-center-weed.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Rio Grande Nature Center has wonderful paths that take you under the old cottonwoods to the river.

Because New Mexico has had so much snow and rain this year, the day lilies and hollyhocks abound.  When I can't draw or make prints, I love to take photos, especially 'flower portraits'.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Visitando la familia en Albuquerque siempre incluye unos paseos por la madrugada en la vecindad.  A causa de que Nuevo Mejico ha tenido tanto nieve y lluvia este ano, los flores abundan.

Today the 'Vamos a Grabar' show was hung... all 91 framed pieces!  The Centro de Arte has a wonderful hanging system which makes it much easier.  The first step is to place the art in the desired spot against the wall.  Then, climbing on a ladder, the wires are attached to a metal strip.  You can 'eyeball' the position looking over the art on the floor.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Monday I go in to straighten up the frames with some tacky tape and put on the labels.  They also need to put up the banner outside the building.  ((Sigh))  I am dying to get back into the studio and create!!!  Soon, I tell myself!!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Estoy cansadisima!!!  Hoy colgue la exhibicion 'Vamos a Grabar'...  91 piezas en total!  El Centro de Arte tiene una sistema lindisima que hace el trabajo mucho mas placentero.  La primera estapa es poner el arte en la posicion deseada en el piso al lado de la pared.  Entonces, subiendo la escalera, se mete el alambre en una tira metal.

Opening day is June 1 and I still have to do signage and descriptions.  Fortunately I don't have to do the catalog!

Tengo todos los del Baren Intercambio de Grabados No. 30 a un lado de la sala de estar and 2/3 del resto esperando pacientamente para las piezas finales ...  La apertura es el 1 de junio y todavia me hace faltan las descripciones.  Afortunadamente no tengo responsibilidad para el catalogo!

Placing rice paper on a dirty inking area, then pulling the paper off, there were some delightful sepia shapes that needed a little enhancing with brushed-on Akua-Kolor inks. I then pasted the rice paper onto a 90# watercolor paper .. and that's that! An abstract! &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Revisando obras para la exhibicion, decidi incluir a esta. Poniendo una hoja de papel japonesa de arroz en el vidrio sucio que uso para la tinta, luego sacando el papel, asomaban unas formas color sepia que necesitaban un aumento con tintas Akua-Kolor aplicadas con un pincel. Entonces pegue el papel a otro de acuarela (90#) ... y ya! Un abstrato&lt;/strong&gt;!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-1305136694323552573?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/1305136694323552573/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=1305136694323552573' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1305136694323552573'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/1305136694323552573'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/05/monotype-monotipo-montana-5x7-13cmx18cm.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rky6ue1v7aI/AAAAAAAAAN8/CvVUMXJOwIo/s72-c/Monotype-Montana-WEB.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-3791894684829318782</id><published>2007-05-14T15:59:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-05-14T16:09:58.254-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cangrejo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Akua-Kolor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crab'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rki_shJlfAI/AAAAAAAAANk/1slr7wU4Rsw/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Fin.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064508552511847426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rki_shJlfAI/AAAAAAAAANk/1slr7wU4Rsw/s400/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Fin.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Finished!!!

I’ve added a dinitro orange and then a fine detail of quinacridone magenta, both Akua-Kolor. (I love all the quinacridones, especially the gold.) I have to check to see how many actually survived the final fourth color. I think I have 15 acceptable prints.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hay mas progreso en el grabado de madera del cangrejo. Anadi una naranja dinitro y luego unos detalles de quinacridone magenta, ambos Akua-Kolor. (Me encantan todos los quinacridones, especialmente el oro o dicho ‘gold’.) Tengo que averiguar cuantos han sobrevivido el cuarto y final color. Creo que tenga 15 impresiones buenas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-3365799310375254635?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3365799310375254635/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=3365799310375254635' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3365799310375254635'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3365799310375254635'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/05/blog-post.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/Rki9JhJle8I/AAAAAAAAANE/JS84qbVWnos/s72-c/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-3-c.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-3440822001566010811</id><published>2007-05-13T18:06:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-05-13T18:11:00.906-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='printmaking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='woodcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grabado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cangrejo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Akua-Kolor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crab'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJRJlewI/AAAAAAAAALk/CitUrwQvF_A/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Han.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064170396851731202" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJRJlewI/AAAAAAAAALk/CitUrwQvF_A/s320/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Han.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJhJlexI/AAAAAAAAALs/qKrjZ6uJGuw/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-2-c.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064170401146698514" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJhJlexI/AAAAAAAAALs/qKrjZ6uJGuw/s320/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-2-c.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJhJleyI/AAAAAAAAAL0/f86RLdHgSmU/s1600-h/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Dio.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064170401146698530" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJhJleyI/AAAAAAAAAL0/f86RLdHgSmU/s320/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Dio.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;A reduction woodcut print of a crab is about to debut.  The wood is all-shina ply 6”x8” and I’m using Akua-Kolor ink with a touch of paste.  So far I’ve gotten two colors down, a hansa yellow with an overlay of diarylide yellow.  The light in the studio is now fading and our dinner chicken is almost ready, so I will continue tomorrow.  I don’t do reductions frequently so am pleased that of 25 sheets of paper, I now have 24.  Not too bad…  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Un grabado de madera estilo reduccion de un cangrejo esta por estrenarse.  La madera es all-shina ply tamano 15cmx20cm y estoy usando tinta Akua-Kolor con un poquito de pegue.  Hasta ahora tengo dos colores puestos, un amarillo hansa con amarillo diarylide encima.  La luz en mi taller ya esta yendo y el pollo para nuestra cena esta casi al comerlo, entonces continuare manana.  No hago reducciones con frecuencia por eso estoay satisfecha de que tengo todavia 24 hojas de un total de 25.  No esta mal… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24407256-3440822001566010811?l=theitinerantartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3440822001566010811/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=24407256&amp;postID=3440822001566010811' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3440822001566010811'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24407256/posts/default/3440822001566010811'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theitinerantartist.blogspot.com/2007/05/reduction-woodcut-print-of-crab-is.html' title=''/><author><name>Diane Cutter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17847435040149730066</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/SvRZcSK5_eI/AAAAAAAAAsE/apThsWqhhzI/S220/D-Cutter---Baren-36-colopho.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkeMJRJlewI/AAAAAAAAALk/CitUrwQvF_A/s72-c/Woodcuts-Crab-Reduction-Han.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24407256.post-8319983253125944559</id><published>2007-05-12T15:42:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-05-12T16:59:56.280-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tagging'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='travel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='freighter'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkYqfRJlevI/AAAAAAAAALc/uwuFv8ZEF4o/s1600-h/Early-art.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5063781547692620530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZMB4V_fAt8s/RkYqfRJlevI/AAAAAAAAALc/uwuFv8ZEF4o/s320/Early-art.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It seems I've been 'tagged' by my good printmaking friend, Ellen Shipley (&lt;a href="http://pressing-issues.blogspot.com"&gt;http://pressing-issues.blogspot.com&lt;/a&gt;). Thanks, Ellen!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the tagging rules:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. List 7 random facts/habits about yourself.&lt;br /&gt;2. Choose another 7 bloggers to tag and list their names in your blog.&lt;br /&gt;3. Leave your 7 tagged bloggers comments to notify them of their tagging and to direct them to your blog for tag instructions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here are random, little known facts about myself:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. I'm the oldest of 9 children and, no, we are not Catholic. (My grandmother was a twin, my mother had two sets, and one sister has a set.) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. When I was in junior high I wanted to be the first woman President of the United States; I have since acquired great wisdom and am happy to be a granny.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. My first school experience was at a huge Mexico City school at the tender age of 3 (I don't remember anything so it must have been good).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. I've traveled to and from Spain when I was 7, 11 and 15 ... via long freighter trips with various stops along the way... once at Cuban sugar cane fields, once at the Canary Islands (to bury the ship's captain and wait for a new one).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. I can never remember a punchline in a joke so I'm always a great audience, which delights my husband.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;6. I hate licorice and Brussel sprouts. Please don't give me your recipe! ... icky!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. My math skills are abominable... but I &lt;em&gt;am&lt;/em&gt; a nice person inspite of it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;And (drum roll, please)... as some of my friends have already been tagged... I'm going for new blood... and some very interesting artists that I have recently discovered:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Janey of Janey's Journal (&lt;a href="http://janeysjourney.typepad.com/"&gt;http://janeysjourney.typepad.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Check out her drawings; they are fresh and simple with a lot of expression.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. Amy Stoner's Fine Art Blog (&lt;a href="http://amymstoner.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://amymstoner.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Amy is a art dynamo. I've got a few of her prints and love them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. Sue Woollatt's From the Studio Window (&lt;a href="http://studio-window.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://studio-window.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Sue has gotten back into her engraving and it's wonderful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. Jennifer Schmitt's Blue Notes - A Printmaking Sojourn (&lt;a href="http://azuregrackle.com/blogs/"&gt;http://azuregrackle.com/blogs/&lt;/a&gt;). Jen is a relative newcomer to printmaking but she has us all excited about the Periodic Table project she started.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. Tina Mammoser, London Artist (&lt;a href="http://tina-m.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://tina-m.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Tina is a friend from Wet Canvas, a printmaker who has moved over to painting more, wonderful dreamy abstracts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;6. Kris Shanks' It's About the Art (&lt;a href="http://shanksart.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://shanksart.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Kris is both a printmaker and painter and her wonderful pieces are always places I would like to inhabit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. Lynette Clay's Original Art (&lt;a href="http://www.lynxes123.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://www.lynxes123.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Lynnie is another Wet Canvas artist friend that does stunning trees that dance ...
