Master Printer

Frank moved to the Pendleton area from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, to become CSIA’s first full-time resident Master Printer in 2001. He is an artist in his own right, working mainly in printmaking and painting, and has collaborated with numerous artists in the U.S., Canada and South Africa in the creation of limited edition lithographs.

A gifted instructor, Frank collaborates with artists of all age and skill level. Whether working one-on-one with a professional artist or guiding a classroom of high school students through the technically challenging medium of fine-art printmaking, Frank has demonstrated his ability to help translate the vision of the artist onto paper.

At CSIA, Frank has collaborated with a growing list of emerging and established Native American artists, including Edgar Heap of Birds, Kay WalkingStick, Truman Lowe and more. He also teaches a range of beginning and advanced printmaking workshops, offered intermittently throughout the year.
