Artist Sam Coronado started coming into his own in the early Eighties, when his Dias de los Muerte paintings received public attention. Cornado then developed his printmaking skills several years ago when he attended a workshop at Self-help Graphics in Los Angeles. Since the workshop, he's been hooked and has applied for grants to establish a print shop in East Austin. Hoping to inspire local artists into the medium, Coronado started a nonprofit atelier, providing many of them their first opportunity to create a print with a master printer. Now in its fifth year, the workshops have inspired many artists and helped launch some of their careers.
