Kate Krasin
April Morning Tesuque Serigraph Print Kate Krasin was born in Tucumcari, New Mexico in 1943. She began making limited edition, hand pulled serigraphs (silk screen prints) in 1977 and continued that tradition until 1997. During her screen printing career she created unique views of the New Mexico landscape, as well as botanical images of native New Mexico flora. Krasin's formal training began at the University of Texas in Austin. She received her B.A. degree in Art at Highlands University in Las Vegas, New Mexico in 1965, where she studied with Elmer Schooley. She completed two years of graduate work in painting at Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas. Kate credits friend and artist Mina Yamashita for teaching her the basics of screen printing. Her inspiration was Japanese prints in terms of their intimacies and human scale as contrasted to the more grandiose vistas of much of western art. Her works are represented in many private collections and in the public collections of the Falser Collection, University of Illinois, Fannin Collection, Houston, Roswell Museum and Art Center, The Albuquerque Museum and the New Mexico Museum of Art in Santa Fe.

Jack McCarthy
Santa Fe Typical
Linocut Print
Santa Fe artist Jack McCarthy states,
"I am basically a storyteller who uses relief prints as my vocabulary...whether architecture, landscapes, boots, saddles, etc, if it's a part of the West, I have tried to interpret it in a unique fashion". A founding member of the New Mexico Printmakers Society and Gallery, he produces iconic scenes of Santa Fe life which are immediately recognizable and uniquely beautiful.

Danielle Shelley
2007-P3
Monotype Print
Danielle Shelley says, "I bring an extremely varied background to my art. Although I was always "making things" as a kid, I left art when I was a teenager and went on to get a B.A. in economics and M.A. in African Studies. I taught Math and French in West Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer; studied Middle Eastern History and Arabic at the University of London, and traveled widely in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Everywhere I went I absorbed art, whether in an African weaver's hut or in the great museums of Europe."
"After working as a freelance writer, business librarian and editor, I returned to art full-time in 1993. I think of myself as a painter, but I love creating monotypes, which is a one of a kind print. I make them without a press, so the process could equally well be called "transfer painting." My monotypes, paintings and drawings have been exhibited around the country and have received a number of awards. My obsessions as an artist include stillness and empty space; the power of color; line as an expression of mind, body and emotion' and the way artists of every time and place transmute life into art. What's most important to me is that my work creates a lived experience for those who see it. This experience creates the connection between artist and viewer that I value so much."
