About me and my work
My printmaking practice responds to nature and built environments, developing from photographs I take and sketches I make while traveling. During the pandemic I expanded my printmaking techniques by teaching myself electroetching and eletrotint, non-toxic methods suitable for my home studio.
My other printmaking techniques include linocuts, both traditional and reduction, woodcuts, lithographs, collagraphs, monoprints, drypoints, and pochoir.
