CONTACT

     I can be reached by e-mail at etcher@svn.net or my telephone at 415 663 1457. My postal address is Box 403, Point Reyes Station CA 94956. E-mail me if you wish to subscribe to my news letter.

     The studio, known as the Talking Press, is located at 50 Drakes View Drive in Inverness Park, and unincorporated community between Point Reyes Station and Inverness.

     Although I do sell by e-mail, I much prefer selling directly during studio visits. There is no substitute for first hand inspection of original prints. The studio is always open by appointment, and because three guest artists and I are now using the studio, it’s an active place. You can usually find someone at work and observe how a print is made.

DIRECTIONS TO STUDIO

     The studio is located in Marin County some 60 miles north of San Francisco and some three miles from Point Reyes Station. If coming from San Francisco, drive north to the Larkspur/Greenbrae off ramp. This puts you on Sir Francs Drake Boulevard West. The drive will take you through the towns of Ross, San Anselmo, Fairfax, San Geronimo, Lagunitas and Olema. It’s mostly a scenic drive, and before reaching Olema you will pass through Samuel P. Taylor State Park with lots of second-growth redwoods. At Olema turn right. For three miles Sir Francis Drake Boulevard is part of State Highway one. Turn left just before the Green Bridge and follow Sir Francis Drake to Inverness Park. A half mile north of Inverness Park, turn left onto Drakes View Drive. No 50 is the fifth house on the right.

     If coming from the north, turn off on Old Petaluma Boulevard and follow it through the city until you reach D Street. Turn right and head west. D Street soon becomes the Point Reyes-Petaluma Road, follow it through dairy country until you reach State Highway 1. Turn left and go through Point Reyes. Immediately after crossing the Green Bridge south of town, turn right onto Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. A half mile north of Inverness Park, turn left onto Drakes View Drive. The Talking Press is in the fifth house on the right.
