After our trip to Cleveland, I spent the next day as a visiting artist at Kent State University. This was a super exciting trip for a few reasons, I hadn’t seen Kent’s printshop before, I have known printmaking faculty Taryn McMahon for a while now and was excited to see her program in action, I have been getting to know Arron Foster better and was excited to see him, and a former student of mine Luca Taylor is attending graduate school there as well. So there was A LOT to see and A LOT to do. We squeezed in printing a CMYK silkscreen edition, critiques with undergrad and grad students, and a lecture!
Of course it snowed a good amount the night I spend in Cleveland…
The Kent School of Art has a new and newly renovated building…there was a student show up in one of the main galleries…
One of the best visiting artist posters yet…
Lucca had some of my favorite things waiting for me when I got there…
Pot luck lunch after my lecture…
Once we were well fed it was time to get started printing…
First two colors done…

Quality control…
I LOVED these drawings of the printmaking students…great way to showcase who is in the shop! Thank you Kent for a really great visit!
