Frank Howell (American, 1937-1997). "Journey" - a three color lithograph on Arches Cover Buff. Printed at Master Editions by Master Printer Bill Lagattuta between the dates of August 10 and 20, 1982. A magnificent, hand-colored lithograph by Frank Howell with imagery and a poem entitled "Journey" that is pencil signed and numbered by the artist ("7/40 Frank Howell 1982") on the lower right, with Master Editions' Chop at the lower left and Master Printer's Chops on the lower right. It is a three color lithograph drawn by Frank Howell on two stones and one plate with Tusche water washes printed in pale blue grey; key drawing drawn using lithographic crayons and tusche water washes printed in black; words drawn on mylar and directly transferred to a positive working plate and printed in grey. Size: 11.5" L x 14.5" W (29.2 cm x 36.8 cm) Size: 18.5" L x 21" W (47 cm x 53.3 cm)
The composition includes a portrait bust of a bearded man amidst a landscape with Howell's poem below which reads as follows, "Journey / I am old and you are young / but I was old when I was young / and unfortunate in my travels / when you were not yet born."
Born in Sioux City, Iowa, Frank Howell studied art as well as writing at the University of Northern Iowa. In the 1960s, he moved to Breckenridge, Colorado, then to Taos, New Mexico, and finally Santa Fe. In addition to being a painter, Howell was a photographer, a master lithographer, as well as an accomplished writer and poet. He worked in various visual art mediums, creating impressive lithographs, monotypes, oils, watercolors, acrylics, drawings, and sculptures. He stated, "I believe that through the communion between the tools, materials, and qualities of lithography and my sensibilities, beauty may be born. It is that communion and my awareness of its potential that perpetuates my search."
Accompanied by Print Documentation signed by the artist that includes specific details about the edition, including a brief description of the technique, a record of impressions, and the following, " Printed at Master Editions by Master Printer Bill Lagattuta. The stones, plate and other impressions have been effaced. Printed between the dates of August 10 and 20, 1982."
