AiR Woodblock Prints Featured in Two Exhibits ~ Cheyenne, WY & Cape Cod, MA

As an Artist-in-Residence at several National Parks I have created woodblock prints inspired by my time in each park. Four of these images are currently on exhibit – three woodblock prints are included in The AIR Exhibit at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod in Massachusetts, and a fourth is part of a semi-permanent exhibit which will be shown for five to seven years at the Wyoming State Museum in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Please give them a visit if you are in either neighborhood ~ or check the links below!

Wyoming State Museum

“For the Benefit of the People: National Park Service in Wyoming”

I’m honored to represent Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area through my woodblock print of Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep at Lockhart Ranch – currently on exhibit at the Wyoming State Museum in Cheyenne, WY. This image was inspired by my residency at the park in 2015. The exhibit “For the Benefit of the People: National Park Service in Wyoming” will be up for a minimum of five years and commemorates the National Park Service in Wyoming.

The Wyoming State Museum is located at 2301 Central Avenue in Cheyenne. Hours are 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Admission is free. (307) 777-7022
