Little Universe #13

2016

My "Little Universes" Series was my first attempt at experimenting with mixed media. I wanted my printmaking work to evolve and grow with another medium. I've been fascinated with encaustic techniques for years so it only sounded reasonable to start there. Marbled monoprints I've printed in the past serve as backgrounds and elements of inspiration for the newly created works, which resemble planetary landscapes or cosmic bodies (hence the name of the series). I am excited to share with you my results and hope that you may like to own a little universe of your own.

Follow this artist

I am a printmaker and multidisciplinary artist with a focus on traditional, hand-pulled prints and the intricate art of paper marbling. My work also extends into mixed media, blending elements of print, drawing, encaustics, and embellishments.

Creating art is a form of therapy for me—an intimate practice akin to meditation. It’s a space for introspection, where I navigate the currents of my thoughts and emotions, often allowing these reflections to manifest in my work. While my subject matter is important, it is the process, this meditative journey, that becomes the essence of my art. Naturally drawn to process-oriented mediums like printmaking, I find deep fulfillment in the rhythm and repetition that these techniques offer.

Much of my work is intuitive, with each piece emerging as either emotionally driven or meditative in concept. I enjoy experimenting and combining mediums, often becoming captivated by certain imagery and creating multiple versions of the same subject. This approach sometimes challenges my "printmaker mind," which is rooted in the discipline of exact multiples, but it also propels my evolution as an artist.

From a young age, art, music, and dance have shaped who I am, both personally and creatively. Recently, I’ve been reconnecting with nature, inviting its influence to flow into my work, adding a new layer of depth and connection.
