Exhibitions - upcoming / current / recent


Two of Mako's pieces were recently featured in a juried group exhibition.

The exhibition "Between Us and the Trees: Conversations in the Secret Language of Nature" was presented by the Los Angeles Printmaking Society during the month of April.

Both of her works, "Your Turn to Turn On" and "Night Lights for Sycamore Night Life," feature forestscapes coming to life in a playful approach, created using multiple printmaking techniques.

A heartfelt thanks to all who visited and supported the show!

Please stay tuned for future exhibitions.
