This linocut print is one of my favorite compositions I've created. The work was inspired by an image taken by the artist while visiting Zion National Park. It expresses the feelings of tranquility once the perfect view has been found. 8.5 x 11" print on Stonehenge. Fall 2019
This screen print was designed to convey the vision I had during quarantine. I spend a lot of time day dreaming about traveling in the mountains out west with close friends. I wanted to incorporate graphic elements in this piece by including hand lettering and flat planes of color. 11 x 14" print on toned Rives BFK. Fall 2020
This print was designed during quarantine and could not be printed. I included it into my adventure series because I wanted to portray the feelings I had during this time being stuck inside longing for the freedom of nature. Spring 2020
