I combine traditional printmaking techniques—etching, aquatint, relief printing, drypoint—with contemporary iconography. I enjoy printing on a range of surfaces from sturdy, thick papers to delicate Japanese handmade papers. I also print on and use found materials, such as original player piano scrolls and musical scores. Making hand pulled prints is very physical and catalyzes a kinesthetic response to materials and subject matter. It enables me to bring a variety of approaches not just to how I make my work, but importantly, how I conceive it.
