Hi everyone, Hello from Salt Spring Island on Canada’s west coast.  We’re in our collective’s studio, experimenting with using trash to create collagraphs and gelly prints.  We’ve just taken down Th-Ink! the 2nd Islands Printmaking Biennale and it was a tremendous success.  Over the month of April, 65 printmakers from across Vancouver Island and our Gulf Islands showed 120 works.  The show had over 1200 visitors and $10,000 in sales.  For our little group and our little island, this was astounding!  We decided long ago that a way to celebrate, whatever happened, would be join you all and enjoy some quiet time in our studio.  It’s great to be back on a roll!
