I am a printmaker, specializing in the creation of reduction linoleum prints. After each successive printing of a color, the surface of the block is reduced while at the same time the print surface is built up with multi-layered colors. Born from one block of linoleum, my relief prints have the color nuances and rich textural surfaces of an oil painting.

Although Picasso coined this method of working, ‘a suicide print’. I rather think of this print process as emulating the journey of life. While creating these prints, I am never able to re-visit the past stages. I can only proceed forward with acceptance of all the good and not so good choices which were mediated and acted upon with the hope and joy of completion.

Ever- evolving, I arrived at mixed media art. Recently focusing on 2D paper works I revel in the details by utilizing simple non-printing press techniques, digital art, painting and cut paper to bring my 2D art to life.

I retired in 2019 and now spend most of my time at Western Ave Studio (459) in Lowell. It had always been my plan to focus more seriously as an artist in retirement. Printmaking, painting, making a mask, cutting a shape, creating a splash or spill – for me it’s all a wonderful discovery!

I’m happily involved in the lifelong process of finding my artistic voice. My work is diverse and experimental and it’s what keeps me engaged in the world and connected to a wonderful group of artists who I’ve been lucky enough to learn from and without whom I’d be lost.
