I had the great pleasure to meet French poet Emeric de Monteynard at Translations: Bates International Poetry Festival in 2010. His French web site can be found here. I was asked to make a portrait of the nine visiting artists. Each poet was asked to write a short piece that would be incorporated into the festival poster. Click on the image for a larger view.

Carmen Elisabeth Puchianu—Translations Poetry Festival
This is one of a series of portraits I did for Translation: Bates International Poetry Festival, 2011. Carmen Elisabeth Puchianu is a wonderful poet from Romania. Her dynamic reading and humor were captivating. You can see her performance at the Translations website as well as the performances from the other seven poets that appeared. An iBook of the festival for the iPad can be downloaded here: Translations – Claudia Aburto Guzmán & William Ash. A pdf version of the book is on the Translations website.
