Artist’s Corner: Branching Out

Try your hand at a different kind of printmaking in this activity inspired by Colborne’s color woodcut Mt Baker, Washington. Elizabeth Colborne was one of the most interesting artists in Washington State during the first part of the 20th century. She took inspiration from the natural world that surrounded her in the Pacific Northwest and is most remembered for her extraordinary color woodcuts. Create your own wooded masterpiece, then check out Colborne’s work featured in From the Vault: Forested. Visit the Artist’s Corner in the Family Interactive Gallery Studio, which focuses on artists from around the world. The Artist’s Corner offers young guests an opportunity to explore a variety of materials and mediums to create art inspired by the featured artist.
