"You're Not" Logan Hurst 2011
5"x10" Serigraph Monotype printed with blend of Dayquil and Nyquil

Stoked for a new semester, got a great TA, and it looks like I could have some rad students!

What a great semester Fall was! My students were willing to "go for it!" and dove right in even when success was uncertain. They truly bucked the trend of needing everything to be perfect and to have the "right" answer. Being free to explore, making mistakes, and learning from them--transforming through them--is (imho) the most effective way to learn. Thanks guys, hope to see you around!

Excited to moderate this panel with some cool printmakers!

I'm going to be printing these over-sized screens at Azusa Pacific University over the course of the semester and am looking for folks who would like to help with this process. PM me if you're interested in learning how to print at this scale, or if you'd just like to help. Most of the work will be done on Saturdays and I promise to feed you well. However many times you'd like to come out would be a big help, even one would be great. I'm also happy to negotiate other compensation such as an art trade or a chance to print with these beasts yourself. APU also has an internship course if you'd like to help out for multiple workdays.
