Liv Rainey-Smith

Guest

Liv Rainey-Smith was introduced to the art of printmaking at Oregon College of Art and Craft where she received her BFA in 2008. Since graduation, she has worked full time as a xylographic printmaker in Portland, Oregon. In 2013 she took the business name Xylographilia, which translates as “Love of Woodcut,” to reflect her passion for the art form. She is inspired by early European prints, folklore, fiction, and the natural world. In addition to her self-directed work, Rainey-Smith enjoys collaborating with writers and publishers.

CthulhuCon™ PDX is a convention style event spawned from the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival® in Portland, OR, with the mission to provide a larger forum for the literary and artistic legacy left by Lovecraft and his circle. Cosmic horror and elements of Lovecraft's work have become much more prevalent in modern horror fiction, games, pop culture, and art. CthulhuCon™ PDX was created so that these things, which have a small place in the film festival, would have a larger space to be explored and enjoyed. CthulhuCon™ is also designed to be an intimate weekend with Lovecraftian creators...

Schedule
