ICE
FISHING SILKSCREEN
The silkscreen by Rie Munoz, entitled "Ice Fishing"
was a huge success! This stunning silkscreen is being described
as Rie's best since "Polar Bear and Fox". This will
probably be the only Munoz silkscreen release in 1999.
By now you should have received the catalog sheet
featuring the February releases by Rie Munoz. Entitled, "Whales
in the Inlet" and "Bush Transportation", both offset
lithographs are limited to an edition of 750. We will release these
prints on Wednesday, February 17, 1999.

DR.
RIE MUNOZ
Rie Munoz has been nominated for an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters
degree from the University of Alaska S.E. This honor is given only
once a year to an individual who has demonstrated evidence of a
significant and lasting contribution to the University or the State
of Alaska, or to the individual's discipline or profession. The
Office of the Chancellor and the Board of Regents will present the
honorary degree on Friday, May 8 at the commencement ceremonies
in Juneau. Rie was very excited, especially when she was informed
she didn't have to give a speech. If she does give one it will be
short, she assures us!
RIE
MUNOZ ON ORCAS ISLAND
It is that time of year when Rie Munoz heads to her cabin on
Orcas Island for a month or two. She and her dog, Muncie, joined
by Juneau friends who have a cabin next to hers, drove down from
Bellingham a couple of weeks ago. Rie brought some unfinished originals
that she will complete while on Orcas as well as starting a few
new ones.
