Location:

Boston, MA USA

About Me:

Boston based printmaker with a soft spot for woodblock printmaking in particular. My focus and obsession is making one of a kind original prints. I use a combination of subtle and bold color layering to create my complex pieces.

Somehow I manage to juggle being the full time mom to a very active one year old with being an artist. The trick is to take things one week, sometimes one day, at a time. And use the time that I do have effectively.
