It’s March now and still gray and snowy in Wisconsin. After 10 years here, I think I’m used to it. Part of what I’ve learned is to fix my vision on the distant summer horizon and make plans. I’m particularly excited this spring about the summer workshops I’ve got lined up through the Hamilton Woodtype & Printing Museum AND the Peninsula School of Art. Sign up for one, two, or all three workshops. Then tell your friends, tell your cousins, tell your colleagues, and any other art-loving folks in your life. We’re going to have a great time printing in the summer!

June 16th at Hamilton Woodtype & Printing Museum

Screenprinting at Home –
July 24 -27th at the Peninsula School of Art
Join me and my brother (Bud Ries) in learning not one, but two methods of screenprinting! We’ll have a great time building images, experimenting with printing, and making lots of cool stuff. The Peninsula School of Art is in Fish Creek, WI in Door County. Read more and sign up for the workshop here.

Letterpress Seed Swap –
