Printmaking has been my focus for the last 8 years. The work on paper is informed by over two decades as a ceramicist. My images focus on nature, portraits, and narratives on family and aging.
Working with ink in a variety of methods and transparencies allows exploration of the depth of images on paper. To create imagery, my practice includes monoprint, monotype, collage, woodcut, linocut, drypoint, silkscreen, pencil and watercolor.
I am a member of the Shepherd Maudsleigh Studio in Newton, MA.
