Selecting plants and flowers, pressing them, composing them, and processing each piece is a meditation on nature and creativity.

After years of traveling the world working as an environmental scientist, I returned to my hometown of Phoenix where I found myself burned out and searching for a creative outlet. While taking a printmaking class with Larry Nisula at Shemer Art Center, I discovered my love of cyanotypes and botanical prints.

When I am in nature, I feel alive. My aim is to express the vitality of the plants in my prints. The process is entirely analog, with no manipulation of the image. The beauty of printmaking is that as much as you try to control the process, no two prints will ever be the same. The angle of the sun, the stroke of the brush, the placement of the flowers will always allow for variation.

I love to share my process through workshops where participants are invited to play, explore, and flow in a creative state.
