I am honored to be one of the 4 recipients of the annual Hallberg Merit Awards given each fall at Sierra College!

“For the past six years the Hallbergs have donated a $2000 annual gift to award to four Sierra College art students for their hard work and commitment. Ed and Kaylene leave the selections wholly to Sierra College instructors. There are no strings attached to the monies what so ever.These awards are directed to students that have moved through Sierra’s art program and positively reflect the department.
We have a reception and brief award ceremony at the start of each Fall semester. Ed and Kaylene intend their gifts to further and purely enrich each student’s creative desires and future plans.”
The show features the work of all 4 artists and will be up at Sierra College through December. After that, a selection of the works will be on display at the Blue Line Gallery in Roseville from Jan 9 – Feb 7, 2015.
The 15 pieces I have on display are from my explorations in Printmaking over the past 7 months. There are woodcuts, collagraphs, monotypes, and monoprints in both ink and encaustic.
“The Queen’s Mirror” – monoprint (encaustic, ink, collage) by Dawn Blanchfield 2014
