Artist Bio
I am a Florida artist and printmaker whose handmade limited-edition linoleum block prints take a nostalgic dive into a wacky world of alligators and flamingos, mermaids and swamp creatures, fruit stands and funky motels. Through whimsical compositions, luminous colors and the rustic texture of the linocut, I aspire to capture the charm and allure of Old Florida as a tourist destination.
About the Studio
My home art studio is equipped with a tabletop etching press, a vintage Line-o-scribe letterpress and a 125+ year-old Charles Brand etching press (housed in the garage).
What to Expect
I will demonstrate the processes of carving a block of linoleum and pulling a print.
