A Montclair resident for thirty years, I now split my life between Florida and Maine. I am inspired and sustained by the beauty and colors of the world around me, and printmaking challenges me to distill my reactions. There’s a wonderful tension between the contemplative action of carving a block and the excitement of seeing an image come to life on the press.
Based on photographs I take, my handmade prints are either ‘relief’ (carved out of linoleum or wood blocks) or ‘intaglio’ prints (etched into Plexiglass or Solar Plates.) I specialize in the reduction process: successively carving and adding colors to one block that once completed, can never be used again. I make my hand-pulled prints in extremely limited edition runs – usually no more than six- and no two are identical.
In mid-coast Maine, my prints are available for purchase at The Walpole Barn, Walpole, Small Wonder Gallery, Camden, and Gifts@136, Damariscotta. They have been exhibited at juried group shows at Kefauver Studio & Gallery and River Arts Gallery, Damariscotta, and displayed in solo shows at First National Bank of Damariscotta and the Rising Tide Cooperative, Damariscotta. In New Jersey, I was the subject of a solo show at Gallery 491, Montclair and my prints are available at Moss and More, Upper Montclair, and in Florida, my prints are available at Nest of Delray. I am a member of Studio Montclair, NJ, River Arts, ME, and the Delray Beach Arts League, FL.
