Solar etching with monotype
18’’ x 18’’
Although I consider myself a painter, I am just as enthusiastic about printmaking. I have been creating etchings, monotypes and lithographs since high school. My artistic practice is rooted in experimentation, exploring the dynamic tension and dialogue between prints, works on canvas, and hybrid pieces that blur the boundaries between the two mediums. For me, printmaking offers a wellspring of widely varied outcomes and unpredictable possibilities, often making the process feel even more exciting and immediate than painting. Rather than working within strict narrative frameworks, I create art for art’s sake. My prints complement and inform my paintings, each medium feeding into the other to push the visual boundaries of the work.
