 “According to my mood I enjoy the technical and aesthetic challenges of woodblock printing and dry point or the utter freedom of monotypes. Some of my prints are black and white, others are printed with color or hand-colored; some combine different techniques or have elements of collage applied. My background as a tapestry artist has influenced how I break up space into small units, the overall patterning and the layering of colors.”
