My original linocuts feature scenes of New York State.  I am inspired by the beauty of Adirondack Landscapes, from which I create my linoleum block prints, Adirondack Birch bark home decor and  scenic New York notecards.  While I hike through the woods, I take photos and use my powers of observation to develop imagery based on what I experience. I also collect Birch Bark and Birch branches along the trail  that I incorporate in my Birch bark frames, crosses and Birch branch shadow boxes.  As I sit and take in the views on the mountain tops, I organize my thoughts as to what will make a breathtaking composition for a new original linocut.

My reputation as an Adirondack printmaker from New York comes from my fifteen years of living in the Adirondacks, along with my many trips to the region throughout my lifetime. Visiting my booth at an art festival or my online store is a virtual vacation to the Adirondacks. My linoleum block prints depict locations many of you will recognize if you travel to the mountains and love the area as I do.  

Although some of my imagery is very location specific, other linocuts are more generic in subject matter. My moonlight prints are inspired by my frequent dog walks at all times of the day and night. I also have linoleum block prints depicting dogs with their humans.  Since I am a native New Yorker, my linoleum block prints reflect the landscape of upstate New York.

I have practiced the craft of Linoleum block printing for more than forty years. I use a process called reduction printing. Rather than using a separate linoleum block for each color, I create a multiple color image by carving and printing in stages from a single block. To learn more about this process, go to my reduction printing process page. I also offer demonstrations and printmaking workshops in New York State.  Contact me if you are interested in booking a demonstration or workshop for your organization.
