Serigraphs, you might say are “built”. Each color is individually laid down; one at a time, on the paper or canvas just as was done when the original was painted. This may require 80, 90, 100 or more colors to complete, each individually squeezed through a silk screen template onto the waiting paper. The result is an entirely hand made graphic image that has many of the qualities of an original painting.
Each serigraph edition has a separate artist's proof edition. The size of this edition is 10% of the regular edition. Artist's proofs are a long standing tradition in printmaking. Originally this was how artists derived part of their compensation for their art, as the primary edition was owned and sold by the publisher. From a print collector's view, an artist's proof is highly desirable as it is considered to be directly from the artist's personal collection. There is no difference in the quality between the artist's proof and the regular edition, and each is designated specifically as an artist's proof and is personally signed, numbered and titled by Will Moses.

What can I say? Perhaps I am still a romantic. In any event, I am almost certain plaid is my favorite color and once in a while I do a painting for myself!

Oh, when the air is frosty and cold, it can be one of the very best times to be outdoors. Whether you are sledding, building a snowman or doing chores around the homestead, clean cold air is purifying to the soul and when you do come in where it is warm, you appreciate it ever so much more.

Thanksgiving is the one holiday everyone seems to agree on. No matter how hard things seem at the time, everyone needs to take an occasional day to reflect on the blessings they have. Too preachy? O.K. then... just pass the turkey!

I like the sea, I have no idea why, I just do. So, every now and then I paint a picture just to indulge this particular fancy.

My father always took us trout fishing in Vermont. He loved to fish and could catch more fish than anybody ever had a right to. Fishing in Vermont was just about his most favorite thing to do, so I guess this one is for him.

Spring in the country is a wonderful thing. The new leaves are out, the earth is warming up and the landscape is at its most varied. A great time to travel, see the sights. And just for the fun of it, tour up through the Hollow some spring day and listen to the croaking bullfrogs telling jokes...gems such as; “What kind of shoes do frogs wear? - Open toad, naturally!” or “Waiter...Waiter...Do you have frog legs? - No!...I just walk this way!” Bullfrog Hollow is a very funny place.

Sundays are different somehow or at least they used to be before the mall decided to stay open seven days a week. A day of rest is not a bad idea. We all need to recharge and take time to enjoy the simple pleasures that hearth, home, family and friends can provide.

Where have all the good men gone is not the question. The question is; where can you get a good one? Well, just as the old maxim decrees “If you want it done right, you have to do it your self.” Build one at home just like these girls are doing. It very well may be the only sensible way to go and if it doesn’t work out, well, who is going to miss a frog or two? Good luck!
