Artist's Statement

There is great beauty in our everyday lives: a morning serving of a gleaming red pomegranate, the selfless gesture from a crafty mother, finding inner peace in the midst of loneliness. This is what catches my imagination and propels me towards printmaking. Well-known objects become metaphors to share my appreciation and convey human experience. My attention to details, textures, and patterns of the natural world inspire me to create. I use relief, intaglio, monotype, and mixed media, reveling in the methodical process and acknowledging the gratification when my work goes through the press.
