Stellar Saturday for 16km hike around silent lake. A yearly pilgrimage. And a fabulous swim to cap it off. Nature gives back.

Although I'm mostly known as a printmaker, via my Letterpress Studio - Jeff Macklin - Jackson Creek Press , like all artists, I contain multitudes. The fundamentals of drawing have always been centered in my practice. It's the base from which all the work emanates. I draw and paint all the time.

It's taken me way too long to speak about the atrocities happening across the world. I'm embarrassed. Freedom of the small press. War crimes are happening daily, and the media fails in their reporting. Politicians fail to stand up. Let Gaza live! 🍉

Printed from a linocut/wood type. 11x14. Ed. of 22
