I had the privilege of visiting LUNA Creative Retreats in San Acacio in the San Luis Valley of Colorado as an artist-in-rsidence in August 2009... I had the added privilege of working with Randy Pijoan at Ventero Open Press Fine Art in San Luis where he taught me the skill of making monoprints - LOVE IT!
