The
Springville Art Museum currently has an exhibit of religious art that is really interesting. We headed down to check it out on Saturday. I knew my friend Ayn had a woodblock print on display (and since I knew it was a
woodblock print, I was expecting something small.
Sheesh Ayn, I don't know how you did that. It was huge).

And my dad had one of his prints in the Exhibit too. His photographs look like they are paintings, but they are really photographs that he layers in
Photoshop to create textures. It's amazing to me that you can get that effect without using filters or other effects in
Photoshop. Dad you are amazing!

While we were there I noticed there was another exhibit of local illustrators. It was so cool to see this work in person. Brett
Helquist of The Series of Unfortunate Events fame. Do you recognize the other two works on display in this picture?

Nathan Hale from Shannon Hale's new graphic novel, Rapunzel's Revenge

And Mark
Buehner, who we met in Bountiful today, but that's a story for another time.
Are the other Brett Helquist prints from Chasing Vermeer? I have the book that pirate print is from, Roger, the Jolly Pirate. And I have and love Millie and the Macy's Parade that he did the art for as well. So fun!
ReplyDeleteI saw an ad in the paper yesterday about the illustrators exhibit. I thought you might be interested in it because of your book club. Glad to hear you already went and that it was great! I can't wait to go!
