spring etching

Here's a picture from my front yard -- I love these blossoming trees! In the midwest the blossoms don't last long, so make sure to take in the scenery now!

The etching shows a blossom tree in a very different region. I recently completed this with watercolor and framed it with a black matte and frame.

inspired by scotland

I created a series of etchings from my sketches and photographs while in Scotland.
This extraordinary tree captured my attention on the grounds of the Dalkeith Castle. It has seen many years...oh, if trees could talk!

And the "hairy coos" are so strange and amusing!

blu print


I created this one-of-a-kind etching titled, "blu print" in a print making course. The image was etched on a metal plate with acid and mesh wire used to add depth. The plate was then covered in blue ink, pressed onto thick paper, and hand-torn. I think I'll put some of my prints on the etsy site soon.
