“I'm a woodblock printmaker, mostly birds."

I live in Putnam County, Indiana, a predominately rural area that continually feeds my appreciation and wonder for the natural world. With formal art education in Natural History illustration, I was fortunate enough to learn woodblock printing from world renowned printmaker, Tom Huck, of St. Louis, Missouri. This ancient artform is now the primary focus of my work.

After my apprenticeship with Tom Huck and Evil Prints, I started my own print shop, Wildwood Press. I am very passionate about conservation and habitat protection. Much of the work coming out of Wildwood Press is used to help those organizations fighting to protect Indiana wildlife and their habitats, particularly our feathered friends.  
I'm constantly producing new work. Please check back with Rowhouse Gallery for new additions.
