 The Forager
8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print One of my yard's regular visitors are a industrious band of squirrels. They hide in the trees, use my fence as a highway and bury their treasure of seeds and nuts in my garden. I'm always surprised at how bold they can be when they stop to chatter at me to exit their domain. You can buy it here: http://www.michellewiebe.com/store/p45/The-Forager.html

 North Wind
8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print When it is almost spring in the Rocky Mountain Foothills a funny thing happens to the sunshine; it looks simultaneously warm and cool. The blues are very distinct and crisp and often the best way to tell what the weather will feel like is to look for the wind in the grasses. You can buy it here: http://www.michellewiebe.com/store/p44/North-Wind.html  I am looking forward to some in person events this spring! Coming up at the end of March, I will be attending the Bowness Spring Craft Fair for the very first time. While I sell prints through many lovely establishments, I like doing fairs for a few reasons:
SO - if you've been following my work online or have come across it in one of our local galleries and are curious to see more, or if you'd just like to stop by and talk shop for a while - PLEASE consider this a warm invite to come stop by at this upcoming market or another in the next few months. I would love to see you! Bowness Spring Craft Fair BCA Main Hall, 7904 43 Ave NW March 28 & 29, 2026 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM Free Admission Event Description: Celebrate the season at the Bowness Spring Craft Fair! Discover a vibrant mix of handmade goods, local art, and unique finds from talented makers — including many from right here in Bowness. It’s a welcoming, community-focused market and a perfect way to spend a spring day. I will have a full selection of prints, postcards and handmade goodies.  Prairie Song
8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print The fluting calls of the Meadowlark inspired this print. Striking to look at, they are unmistakable when you see the bright yellow plumage on the male birds. I was really experimenting with pigment values in this piece, popping the yellows with subtle violet tones in the grasslands.

I may also post those kinds of posts here - I just wanted to start something that could be sent out in an email. I am LONG overdue for that sort of thing.  First print of the year! I am really pleased with how the shadows and light turned out on this one.
Blue Monday 8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print There is a certain kind of light you get at sunset during the depths of winter that feels warm and bitterly cold at the same time. I think there is something about all the blue shadows that makes the hint of golden yellow just a little more intense. This usually happens when the snow has a hard crunch underfoot and your breath puffs out in clouds as you hike along the trail.

Robins are often symbols of change so it seems fitting that I spent a lot of time in December reflecting on my path while working on this guy.
To be completely frank, the last half of 2025 was difficult. Juggling instructing and caregiving while also slowly plugging away at my studio practice has left me depleted. As my brother's health worsened, I cancelled many events and workshops to be able to help him navigate tough days. So, now I'm in that liminal space of trying to get back into my routine, plan ahead for the coming months as well as thinking about what life looks like now that I am no longer a caregiver - even my kids are beautifully independent now! I know folks have reached out asking about workshops - I will be updating my website as I confirm dates in the coming weeks for spring and summer dates.

8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print One of the most reliable little birds in our Northern landscape is the Black-capped Chickadee. Even on the frostiest mornings, you can hear them sounding their warnings while safely perched deep within the branches of all the bushes and trees.

8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print The Foothills of the Rocky Mountains are a very special place in autumn. As you walk through the fields in the rural countryside, the breeze inevitably picks up and the leaves weave an intricate dance.

8"W x 10"H Oil Based Ink on Cotton Rag Paper Unframed Limited edition reduction linocut print We are on the last days of autumn where I live. The wind has a chilly undertone and the blue sky has a steely quality that hints at the coming change of seasons. Two mourning doves are observing these signs, marking the occasion with their low, drawn out calls. You can buy it here: http://www.michellewiebe.com/store/p38/Autumn-Vigil.html |
