BUCKET EXHIBITIONS Demos -- THE PRINTERS PLANET 2026 -- Santa Fe

ELLIE WEADOCK did all the printmaking at the BUCKET EXHIBITIONS tent, and handed out wet prints for free:

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:
