Autumn in the #printmaking studio. This print series features the flora of Queen of the Prairie, one of my favorite native plants. With cotton candy colored blooms and star shaped leaves, it just feels like the right level of whimsy to create art from ✨ #gelliprinting #nativeplants

#februllage2025 09: Horizon This collage uses a mix of materials: gelliplate prints, film negatives, vintage ephemera and book illustrations. I always love to imagine the story behind bits of handwriting in my work. It's like a whispered secret to the void. #collage #mixedmedia ✂️

#februllage2025 08: Cartoon. This #mixedmedia collage uses #linocut stamps, monoprints from the gelliplate, vintage book illustrations/ephemera. I've been looking for an excuse to use my James and The Giant Peach illustrations leftover from a commission 🥰 🍑 and today's prompt was perfect.

One of the best parts about discovering a new creative process (#linocut I think I'm in love) is when you have an idea in your head, grapple through unknown techniques, and it manifests on paper. Just a few more carvings to finish out my latest #collage #mixedmedia series. On the home stretch!
