Main Art Gallery opens printmaking show

Main Art Gallery in the Fan District recently opened "Limited Edition: Exploring Printmaking at the University of Mary Washington."

The exhibition features art by Jesse Kopp, Andrew Sniffin, Molly Mathusa, Justin Owens and Molly Cambell. The works were created during two semesters of courses taught by Rosemary Jesionowski. The students explored printmaking and its various techniques, from monotypes to intaglio as well as traditional processes and modern, digital processes.

"These students are really good artists," Jesionowski said. "This was their first experience with printmaking, and it's exciting to see how great the work is with their first endeavor with the medium."

The exhibition runs through Aug. 31 at 1537 W. Main St. Hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
