Here you can find current projects as well as past examples of my portrait drawing, printmaking, and more.

Liberty & Literacy

An ongoing series of portraits recognizing the ongoing advancement of education and civil rights. New prints each month on Patreon.

I draw expressive portraits with pencil and layers of ink. I find the range of forms and expressions of the human face to be endlessly fascinating.

Relief prints are hand-carved in reverse, then inked and pressed on paper to make a set of unique prints.

In addition to portraits, I make prints of birds, animals, and occasionally objects or scenes.

Thanks to my patrons for supporting this printmaking practice. Every print seen here began as a Patreon project.

Paintings, pets, places, and special commissions.
