Got my prints from the 2025 Emerald Print Exchange, run by the lovely folks at Whiteaker Printmakers! I threw in a sidelight to better show the detail in the embossed print, center left. They also have a reverse auction of one print from each submission, so I'll add the details later! #printmaking

An array of 10 prints, mostly linocuts, with a couple of screenprints. The prints are in three rows. The top row has four prints, depicting, left to right, a small sparro, a peacock staring at its reflection, a blue turtle and a cactus. The second row has two prints, an embossed snake and a screenprint of a mountain range. The bottom row has four prints, an audio cassette with the unspooled tape in the shape of a heart, a dramatic owl, a serpent and a colorful tree.
