William Howard: Recent Prints
Monday, January 14 - Thursday, February 7, 2002

This invitational presents recent intaglio prints created by WIU assistant professor of art, William Howard. In this body of work, William Howard explores the diverse population found in rural Illinois through figurative images presenting a "sampling" of the population of small towns in the area. His unique approach to portraying the figure ranges from life-size etchings to multiple series to very small scale prints. Howard received his B.S. degree in Landscape Architecture and his B.A. and M.F.A. degrees in printmaking from Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado. His work has been included in group exhibitions and competitions throughout the United States, and in England, Scotland and Wales.

This exhibition is supported by a WIU Foundation Summer Stipend Award and co-sponored by the Department of Art and the College of Fine Arts and Communication.
