Block Prints

These are are linoleum block prints that are created by hand. I carve a block, roll ink onto it with a roller, lay paper on top of it, and print on a proof press or a treadle-operated 1909 Chandler and Price. Since each is a separate work of art, there is a little variation of texture in each print. All of these prints are limited editions, numbered and signed.

England

These are linoleum block prints created by hand from sketches done on site during a trip to England. Since each is a separate work of art, there is a little variation of texture in each print. I also printed on a variety of colors of paper for several of the scenes. All of these prints are limited editions of 30, numbered and signed, and are $145 each. Most are on 11x15" paper, the two long ones are 9x22".

Paris

These are linoleum block prints created by hand from sketches done on site when I visited Paris.  All of these prints are limited editions of 100, numbered and signed.

Odds and Ends

I wasn't sure what to call this group. Most of my prints are landscapes, but I'm doing some carved and some letterpress (and some mixed) prints that don't fall easily into a traditional landscape or figure category.

Mostly 4x5" cards, with a few that are 5x7". These are also a mix of hand carved blocks and vintage wood type.
