Meet Katie S. Machain, an artist who graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from The University of Montana in 2013, with an emphasis in printmaking. Her images are inspired by actual places and photographs. Katie uses a printmaking process, known as reduction relief, which involves hand-carving and printing her images from a single block of wood. Her colorful, multi-layered wood block prints highlight the intriguing tones and patterns of animals, landscapes, and other natural manifestations.
