New Print Releases! by Liv Johnson

A busy year brings three new print releases, including some color variations for these images! Most recently completed is “Transference”, an 8” x 10” five color etching in two color varieties, as seen below. Next is “Breakwall”, which was included in the 2025 Water Portfolio exchange organized by Melanie Yazzie. The edition created for the portfolio was printed in a dark blue, but I also printed a very limited run of the plate in what I’d like to call “currency green”. And we can’t forget “Projection” - released in time for PrintExpo in Austin this year and now running low in the number available. If you’re interested in acquiring any of these prints send me a message requesting the Available Works catalogue through the link below, and don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter if you haven’t already!
