JESSI CROSS -- Wheat Paste Animals

Printmaker JESSI CROSS visited THE PRINTERS PLANET this year, though she did not have a booth in the market. She did however, wheat paste a lot of animal prints close by, in the children's playground near Site Santa Fe:

We first met JESSI CROSS during the SOUTHWEST PRINT FIESTA 2024, when she jumped in and helped us make EXQUISITE TESSELLATION Prints:

ALBU-BRIJES

We mostly pulled ALBU-BRIJE Prints, carved by those in Henry Morales' printmaking circle in Albuquerque. These are Albuquerque versions of Mexican Alebrijes, inspired by the eight 20 feet huge Oaxacan Alebrije sculptures exhibited in downtown Albuquerque from June 1st to July 22nd, 2026.

The ALBU-BRIJE Prints have also been enhanced with AUGMENTED REALITY -- after being colored and made 3D with AI. That way we could place them in front of the REAL Alebrije sculptures and get screen shots:
