Printmaking

I came to printmaking through my cut-silhouette paintings. I looked one day and asked “Why is this not a woodblock?” Which it turned out it could be. I started printing the silhouettes before painting them, and quickly found myself immersed in the outstanding world that is Printmaking. Variable edition multiples allow me to study the same forms with different colors and moods. In 2011 I’ve begun to explore monoprinting, blending my world back and forth between painting and printing.
