The Santa Barbara County Office of Arts and Culture presents a juried exhibit of the Santa Barbara Printmakers (SBP) at the Betteravia Gallery in Santa Maria through April 30.
The SBP is a collective of 75 artists who exhibit works made with hand and press printing techniques such as lithography, screen printing, linocut, photopolymer plates, monoprint, etching, drypoint, woodblock, collagraph, clay, and more. Participants in the show include printmakers from California and throughout the country who were invited to submit prints for the show. Award winners include Monique Wales for Forecast Rain, Locally Heavy at Times, Inga Gorsvans-Buell for Street Hieroglyphics, and Hannah Croshaw for Victory Hands. Honorable mentions went to Donna Brown, Nina de Creeft Ward, Nancy Bingham, and Rosemarie Gebhart (work pictured).
The exhibit juror was master printmaker Sam Carr-Prindle of Crown Point Press. For more information on the collective, visit sbprintmakers.com. The Betteravia Gallery is located at 511 E. Lakeside Parkway, Santa Maria.
