I work in linocut, woodcut, silkscreen, scratchboard, and photography. Inspiration comes from the natural world and activities of humans. I look for patterns in nature, the interplay of light on a scene, and the subtleties of colors. For subjects I prefer what would be called “intimate landscapes,” – close-in views of natural scenes and objects.

​

My upbringing in an artistic family, and my career in print cartography, have helped me form my artistic sensibilities and methods. Combining methods is interesting: I’ve been using silkscreens and linocuts together, or linocuts and stencils, and sometimes adding watercolor or gouache by hand. Computer imaging effects add a different approach and feel to the images.
