For the first time, my printmaking is being shown in a gallery!

Until 11 May there is a group show called “Shifting Ground” at Dundarave Print shop on Granville Island. My work “Contortionists - I” is on display. It brings emphasis to the changing forms of sea stars

I’m giving away my first set of prints to people who donate to Palestine!

I started etching in September and have really enjoyed the process.

A close up photograph of an etching print. The etching is of a fig branch in maroon ink with wide leaves at the top and smaller leaves towards the bottom. There are 5 figs shown on this close up - two of which is slightly concealed behind a branch. The figs have been made more prominent through collaging maroon paper onto the paper during the printing process. The etching is made up of small thin lines and no shading. The line weight varies as there are thicker lines around the leaves and figs but thinner lines for the contours of the figs and the leaves veins. There is a delicacy to the piece. The paper is a Japanese washi paper with speckles. It gives the work an organic feel
