Artist Statement
I find that the process of linoleum block printing always results in interesting, bold, and subtly dark images. Because of this, it has become my medium of choice. Whether they be black/white or accented with color, my works show my love of detail and storytelling. I enjoy looking at and making art that the viewer has to examine closely and that brings us back to a childlike state of awe and wonder.
