woodcut prints by Chris Plummer

I’ve spent the last few weeks getting ready for a show going up soon in the Northern Kentucky University Main Gallery, put on by the Northern Kentucky University Print Club.  The theme for the show is DREAMS.  The way I have chosen to interpret this theme is to explore the idea of the American Dream through nine new prints.  I hope to be able to post my completed prints soon.

Postcard for the new Print Club exhibition.

For many years I have participated in Fresh Art, a yearly benefit for the Berhinger Crawford Museum here in Northern Kentucky.  The idea is that artists create a piece of art within the boundary of Devou Park in a single day, and that evening all the art is auctioned off, with the money being split equally between the artist and museum.

 

I usually take this opportunity to experiment with new methods of working within the realm of printmaking.  This year I did a two block reduction woodcut with some alternative inking and printing techniques.  I’m looking forward to exploring these techniques further this winter, pushing my art style in new directions.
