I took a brief printmaking class this winter and had fun learning linoleum and woodcutting. These are press-made prints on BFK Reves paper from a linoleum cut based on a drawing of mine by the same name.
I make art for fun and self-expression. I work in monotypes/monoprints, collage and painting, most recently small works on paper. I find the serendipity of printmaking, the order-from-chaos nature of collage, and the free-form, unfettered nature of abstraction both challenging and satisfying. In addition, I occasionally explore the self-portrait. Once I got over the discomfort of looking closely at my own image, I came to enjoy the process, and find wonder in the range of characters that emerge.
