Sarasvati, Goddess of Knowledge, Literature, Arts, Wisdom, and Learning.
Linocut on paper, 2024
This is the fourth linocut print in my current series of Goddess Guides. Sarasvati is associated with wisdom and eloquence. I share her to honor and exemplify these qualities as well as the many gifts our creative self-expression celebrates.

The Magic of Printmaking ~
Image Transfers, Mono & Relief Printing:
Experiment, play, and learn simple hands-on printmaking methods. Each week we enlist common materials: foam sheets, masking & clear packing tape, soft-cut Lino sheets, cyanotype, and found objects. The current MOCA exhibition will serve to inspire our exploration. We’ll use simple tools such as acetate, brushes, water & oil-based inks, brayers, barrens, cardboard, solar papers, and more as our hand-printmaking experience opens new doors for creativity and self-expression. No previous art experience is required.
Visit the ASAP website for a full listing of free programs for Veterans & family members
