Artist Statement

I have enjoyed learning to create in many media—fabric, glass, metal, watercolor, and more–but I always return to printmaking. Monoprinting is a very playful medium, where I can arrange and rearrange shapes and colors without making permanent marks on the plate. I am interested in chaos becoming order, straight lines interacting with organic shapes, and images that can suggest many stories.
