Monoprints & Lino prints

As soon as I started cutting lino, I was hooked. I find the process meditative and fun (and sometimes just a little bit frustrating…) but I always come back to it. When I’m not preparing for printmaking, I use acrylics and watercolors to create both abstract and non-abstract images. I try to mat everything to standard sizes but I can’t always do that. If you’ve got something in mind, or a different size you’d like, get in touch.

FUNctional Art

Years ago I started creating images and putting them on things - pillows, t-shirts, baby onesies and bibs, tea towels. I had print each one so they are all unique. They are fun and functional.

One of my greatest pleasures living here is that we are intricately connected with nature, living side by side with the beauty of this place. I am often out during early morning hours and evening and love exploring in inclement weather. The light and feel is magical. I don’t tend to manipulate my images - what you see is how it was at the time. The one concession to this is the horizon line. I do like to make that as straight as I can! Images are printed as giclees and are available in different sizes and matting.
