Ann Korologos Gallery is proud to present the amazing new Nest Series by Marie Figge Wise, printed at Andersen Ranch and available now at our gallery. Our friend and master printmaker, Craig O’Brien, saw the series installed in the gallery and said, amongst other things (read below), “Those little pieces are very simple, very rich. The drawing had great line quality; it had depth; a certain richness on the heavier areas that bring a lot of light through it, which is really important with printmaking. When I see that it always gets my attention because you don’t see that very often.”
Enjoy this selection of works highlighting birds and their homes, including works by Sherrie York, Dinah Worman, Mike Weber, and Neil Clifford.

“The [Nest Series by Marie Figge Wise] are very simple, very rich. The drawing had great line quality; it had depth; a certain richness on the heavier areas that bring a lot of light through it, which is really important with printmaking. When I see that It always gets my attention because you don’t see that very often. It looked like she intended every mark. There were no mistakes, and that’s unusual in printmaking. When I work with artists doing monotypes; if you look like you intended every line and mark, then it was successful.”
