With the release of my Genova Workshop poster, I am also releasing these variations on the same theme. I felt it would be cool for you to have all the choices put in front of you, before you made a choice which prints might appeal to you. The documentation and special circumstances surrounding the Genova Workshop makes that one a very special variant of the following designs. But you decide.
Also, excuse me for being a few days later than announced releasing these, I’ve had jet-lag a little worse than expected (I’m posting this at 4:30 am haha)

Two years ago in 2010, when I passed through Genova on my “Psychedelic Secession” Tour, I promised Sara Twinn, who organized my first visit to Genova, that I would return to beautiful Genova and conduct a screen-printing workshop. It was my intention to return and teach silkscreen to anyone who would be interested to come and learn. Her friend, printmaker Jessica Rassi, made me a counter-promise. If I were to return and teach a workshop in Genova, she would teach me etching. Well, as my “Psyck Italia” spring tour to Italy took form, I wrote to Sara and told her I was ready to make good on my promise.
Sara Twinn’s record store Taxi Driver teamed up with Disorderdrama to present an ARCI Liguria sponsored event – my workshop at Spazio Cernaia – on Piazza Cernaia – hosted by Matteo, who gave me a very detailed and informative guided tour of Genova, telling me about it’s sea history, place in 16th Century European politics, it’s ingenious neo-classical democratic organization, the famed “Rolli di Genova,” while walking through the old historic center of Genova.
Little did I know that 100 people would attend my workshop, that both major Genovese newspapers would cover it, that fellow-Californian and friend Kepi Ghoulie would co-incidentally be in town to play an inspiring acoustic show at the opening, and that Genovese film-maker Davide Colombino would create a beautiful film that perfectly describes the event:
Lastly, I am excited to show you the artist proof of an aquatint etching I made with Jessica Rassi’s guidance (Jessica Rassi in the above photo) – my first etching – a very limited edition to come later this summer.
