      "It's not just about the mechanics; it's about the way the colors breathe together on the metal." — Mark Elliott Johnson

The conversation reveals insights into Reddy's creative process, his philosophical approach to art and teaching, and the technical intricacies of his printmaking methods. The episode also touches on Johnson's own journey, the influence of Reddy's teachings on his career, and the continuing relevance of Reddy's techniques in contemporary printmaking.

      S3e98 the Society of American Graphic Artists with Diego Briceno, DeAnn Prosia, and Esther Schwalb
      Jan 13 2026

      Since 1915, the Society of American Graphic Artists (SAGA) has survived world wars, the Great Depression, and the digital revolution by doing one thing: keeping the press rolling. In this episode of Platemark, we're going behind the scenes of the cornerstone of American printmaking with three powerhouses who have steered the ship—Diego Briceno, DeAnn Prosia, and Esther Schwalb.

      We dive into SAGA's gritty 110-year evolution, from its origins as a Brooklyn etching club to its current status as a national titan championing inclusivity and technical mastery. Discover the secrets behind their longevity, the "radical community" that supports artists for a $75 annual membership, and why this legacy is more vibrant today than ever before. Plus, don't miss the SAGA 90th Annual Exhibition, Ink and Impressions, on view at the Housatonic Museum of Art now through February 16, 2026.
