Artist Statement
Printmaking at its best it is a meditative practice. I find art and music to be a quick salve for the soul. I can often lose myself in the process of printing. I create art out of hope to look within with love and look outward with courage. Sharing my work has become another way to brave the world with all its’ problems as well as celebrate the beauty in our everyday lives. I collect art myself because it always brings me joy. I believe every home deserves original art on the walls to nurture our appreciation of beauty.
