Using slides of his High Sierra woodcut prints, Tom will present the images with his own comments. Excerpts from Gary Snyder's High Sierra journals as well as some of the poems which developed out of these journal entries will also be presented. Mr. Killion will describe his complicated multi-block printmaking process. He will exhibit some of the original blocks as well as the hand-made original of the The High Sierra of California.
