A collagraph print is essentially a collage of materials of various textures glued onto a printing plate, often a thin wood or cardboard. The plate is inked up, usually by hand, and then printed onto paper either manually or via a press. Cindy’s use of natural materials, such as giant sunflowers, presents nature in a beautiful two-dimensional form.
Featured Artist
Marvin Henry
ink on yupo
In recognition of Veteran’s Day, Marvin Henry, a U.S. Marine Corp Veteran, will join the Gallery’s other featured artists with his unique works.
Henry finds solitude in creativity. Emblazoned on his arms, “eyes that see” contrasted with “eyes that saw too much” on the other arm defines what Henry as a young man of eighteen encountered on the Vietnam battlefield in the 1960’s.
Now retired, his artistry keeps him active in creating pieces which allow each viewer to see what uniquely speaks to them. “Whether it’s chains drug through muddying acrylics or a gently massaged canvas, the paints themselves tell me when it’s time to rest.”, states Henry. His unusual approaches to moving paint on the canvas or ink on Yupo result in hard to describe designs you truly appreciate viewing in person.
