Anthony DiMichele

Anthony DiMichele began his printmaking career in the mid-1980’s, in Seattle, Washington, where he studied Intaglio and Relief printmaking techniques, with Peter Ramsey, via The Experimental College. He was a founding member of Presswork, a Seattle-based printmaking collective; and taught printmaking to developmentally disabled adults, as an instructor for Creative Living. Anthony specialized in Mezzotint, after residencies in Nantes, France, studying under the master Mezzotint artist Laurent Schkolnyk.

From the late 1990’s to 2020, he was an active member of the arts community in Friday Harbor, Washington, where he was a founding member of another artists’ collective; manager of Studio7 gallery & printmaking studio; and private printmaking instructor. Anthony was also a guest instructor at Skagit Valley Community College; a participant in the annual San Juan Island Studio Tours; and a participating artist, as well as employee of, the San Juan Island Museum of Art.

Anthony relocated to Wakonda, SouthDakota, in 2020, where he and his art partner, Terri Clark, established a new private art studio and gallery, which they named Cloud Shadow Studio, to reflect their appreciation of the sunshine, big blue skies, puffy white clouds and the beautiful rural landscape of South Dakota.
