In the dream I swam all the way from Tacoma to Sitka, then upon arriving in Sitka I was out on a spit of land across the water from town and a huge tsunami wave tossed me into the sea. I was tumbling underwater, the ocean was opaque from the wave kicking up silt, and I realized I couldn’t tell up from down to find the surface and was going to drown, alone beneath the waves. I woke up in a start— it was one of those almost-too-real dreams that had you wake with your heart racing. Later that day I was ruminating on the dream and realized that while I felt alone underwater because I couldn’t see anything, I wasn’t actually alone. I was surrounded by kin: Salmon guiding me to the headwaters of a stream, kelp growing towards upwards to guide me to the surface, seals who could pull me along.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eI spent the first week of my residency carving the linoleum, then we got our steamroller rental delivered and printed! The steamroller was a little smaller than the ones we use for Wayzgoose so I wasn’t sure if it would be heavy enough, but it worked perfectly and we ended up with nine prints. So many people came out to watch and it was such a blast getting to do another steamroller print!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eSizes available:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e8x12 and 16x24 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is a \u003cspan\u003egiclée\u003c\/span\u003e print?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGiclée printing  (pronounced \u003c\/span\u003ezhee-clay\u003cspan\u003e) is a type of inkjet printing, \u003c\/span\u003ebut \u003cspan\u003enot all inkjet prints are giclée prints. The intention of giclée printing is to produce a product at a higher quality and with a longer lifespan than a standard desktop inkjet printer.   For a giclée print, the paper must be of archival quality. The biggest difference between a standard inkjet print and a giclee print is that giclées are printed using pigment-based inks rather than dye-based inks that are found in lower-cost inkjets. Pigment-based inks have a longer lifespan: they can last anywhere from 100 - 200 years without significant fading.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fireweed Press","offers":[{"title":"8x12","offer_id":45348576395298,"sku":null,"price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16x24","offer_id":45348576428066,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/3600\/8482\/files\/IMG_5761.jpg?v=1778190241","url":"https:\/\/fireweedpress.com\/products\/sea-kin-giclee-print","provider":"Fireweed Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
