BEHIND THE SCENES: PREPARING FOR MY SOLO SHOW AT ST. JOSEPH'S UNIVERSITY

Sharing a look behind the scenes as I prepared for my solo exhibition at St. Joseph’s University, showcasing 24 pieces spanning from 2004 to 2024.

As a fine art printmaker for over two decades, this show is a reflection of 20 years of creative exploration, collaboration, and evolution. Throughout that time, I’ve had the honor of working with some of the field’s most inspiring master printmakers:

• Kathy Caraccio [@kathyprint]

• Marina Ancona [@10grandpress]

• Sheila Goloborotko [@goloborotko]

• and the late Sheila Marbain [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheila_Marbain]

• the late Mitch Lyons (mitchlyonsstudio.com)

This show was curated by the extraordinary Kathy Caraccio, whose vision and expertise shaped the exhibition in remarkable ways. I’m deeply grateful for her brilliance and generosity.

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the immeasurable help of my incredible support team:

• my wife, Kate Gardner [@creatvacts]

• our niece, Victoria St. Fleur

• our friend, Patrick Carrano

A heartfelt thank you to St. Joseph’s University, the SJBK Center for the Arts [@sjbkcfa], and especially to Ramona Candy [@ramonacandy] for making this opportunity a reality.

And to Christopher Quiñones [@chris_q_q], who installed the work with such care and artistry—thank you for making the show look so stunning.

It takes a village. I’m beyond grateful to mine.

And Kathy—your curation? Simply brilliant.
