Printmaking

There is a unique satisfaction in printmaking because of how manual and laborious it is, far from digital processes. In my practice, I use two methods: etching and linocut. If you want to find out more about the processes involved, follow me on Instagram where I show each step.

My work predominantly focuses on nature - where I feel most at peace and grow fascinated by its forms. I use my artwork to advocate for change and as a source of hope.

Projects

An etching hanging on the wall with focus drawn to 3 large sea stars through colour. Each sea star is a different colour from a soft peach, a burnt orange and a soft yellow. The sea stars' legs are often curved to fit in a small space. Surrounding them on the top left corner are tons of barnacles. On the bottom right another layer of stone goes above them. This layer has 5 sea anemone on it.
