International Print Exchange 2010

http://ipe2010.greendoor-printmaking.co.uk/guidelines.php

This is a very inexpensive print exchange.

Size requirements: 5.5" x 5.5" paper size
image maximum : 3.9" x 3.9"

Cost is £6 which is approx $9.

Deadline is 12 Noon (GMT) Tuesday 31 August 2010.

Submit your edition then receive an exchange portfolio from ten different printmakers from around the world. I've seen others participate in past years. While not every print is fabulous, there were still a few impressive prints in each exchanged edition.

Mediums:

All submissions must be created using a recognised printmaking process: e.g. Serigraphy, Etching, Lithography, Mezzotint, Dry point, Linocut, Woodcut, Gocco, Collography etc... Purely digital/ photographic prints will not be accepted. However, the inclusion of digital/photographic work as part of the image creation process is welcomed provided that the final physical print is not produced using an exclusively digital print process.

some more photos from the Shepard Fairy Exhibit

I wish we had taken photos of the rumpus in the education room. Unfortunately, these are all I could sneak without the guards seeing me. I took several more of the buildings architecture, but no more of the students and the exhibit.

I took one photo the other day with my phone...

Just a little something to check out. The doodle as art.
