An Artist's Life
A lifetime of artmaking in many media has led me to handprinted woodblocks. This is a relief printing process, similar to linoleum block printing or stamping. I enjoy carving the block, rolling the ink and seeing the image emerge. The texture of ink and wood, the graphic qualities of the images, and the overlapping layers make this process a delight. I'm currently living in the beautiful Hudson Valley of New York, after many years in St Petersburg Florida.
Though I've printed on large presses, the simplicity of hand printing with a baren in my studio works best for me now. My editions are small and may be variable; each listed print and card is the exact one you will receive when you purchase. Print prices vary depending on size, complexity, number of colors, paper quality and mounting methods.

Since 2008, I've shared my art with a wide audience, thanks to my Etsy shop. People in Australia, England and California have purchased art from me. I really enjoy being able to send my work out into the world through Etsy. Please convo me if you have any questions about my work; I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks for visiting!
