August 2026 Printmaking Classes

Try your hand at block printing in August! 

 

I'm teaching a variety of classes, including a pet portrait workshop at Odd Mart (or any animal you are inspired by), a book plates workshop at the Marine Mills Folk School, and a 3 week course that dives a bit deeper into linolium block printing at the White Bear Center for the Arts.

Now is the time to sign up for a class! It's fun!

Recent work...

 

Noticing some very springy colors in my recent work...after a long winter it is only natural to want to add something bright to the bold black linocuts...  inspired by my yard, plants, and also some older themes that deserved a new look.

Springing Forward

Still enjoying putting text in my images, these are a few of the latest I've been working on...  

 

 

These all start out as black and white compositions, but I often add color layers after the black ink has dried. I've been drawn to more simple, bold designs lately, not quite as intricate and busy as last year-- maybe because the world feels busy enough right now.

I'm excited to see how things shape up for this season of art festivals and pop-ups!

Thinking about the power that graphics can have, from Kathe Kollwitz to German Expressionists... woodcuts can be so strong.  MN Strong. XO 

 

Dark Valentines for HEARTIZAAR

Been working on some valentine themed designs for the upcoming  HEARTIZAAR event in St. Pete in Febraury... I love the mix of sweet and spooky.
