Tonight was the invitation-only preview for the 75th annual Laguna Beach Festival of Arts. No comment on the Pageant of the Masters, a related event in which actors dress up as paintings for some reason; this was the art festival portion of the proceedings, and it was well attended . . . with food, wine and cleavage flowing freely.
Each year the exhibitors at the festival include a large number of printmakers, including Donna Westerman, Dirk Hagner, Noriho Uriu, Julita Jones, and Vinita Voogd. Dirk's woodcuts are always amazing, usually writers but this year a series of very interesting nudes printed from multipe blocks.
While waiting in line I had the thought of shooting a series of black-and-white portraits of printmakers, the way Renee King has been doing with photographers.
