Screens and Suds Print

I was asked by Sam Verrill and Brian Gearing to contribute a print to the 2010 Screens and Suds Series and Exhibition in Richmond VA this weekend. A portion of the print run is donated by each artist to help raise money for the MS Society and the Richmond Hospice. I kicked the idea of a Beer Themed print for a week or so until I finally came up with this idea:

SUGGESTED RECEPTACLES FOR THE DRINKING OF BEER.





It was a fun one to make.


Metallic Gold and Black ink on White Stock



Metallic Gold and Black Ink on Cream/Manila stock.

Copies of the print can be purchased in person this weekend at the show in Richmond and online at my Etsy shop.
