Prints of woodcuts by M. Judith Guyton
will be on display in the foyer of Magale
Library, Centenary College, March 2-28.
A reception honoring the artist, a native
Shreveporcer, will be held Sunday, March 4,
from 2 - 5pm in the library.
Ms. Guyon, a graduate of the Kansas
City Art Institue, also studied at the
Cranbook Academy of Art in Bloomfield
Hills, Mich. She is represented in many
collections including those of Centenary
College, the First National Bank of Shreve-
port, Lomis and Nettleson of Dallas, and
private collections throughtout the United
States, France, Italy, and Greece. She
has done major commissions for several
firms including Hargrove, Guyton, and
Ramey in Shreveport.
Ms. Guyton has exhibited her works in
Montgomery, Detroit, Providence, Memphis,
Baton Rouge, Little Rock, Houston, and
Shreveport, where she has won several
awards and prizes.
Her prints of woodcuts represent the
oldest method of printing. They are made
by cutting a plank of wood; inking the sur-
face in relief and running through a press.
The earliest wood cuts were printed by
rubbing with a spoon-like instrument on
the back of the paper.
