Prints, posters,
yard art and t-shirts are available for purchase
From the beginning, it has been important to find affordable ways to share my artwork with others.
By using centuries old methods of relief printmaking; from linoleum block prints, to current digital methods like the ink jet repoductions on t-shirts of my paintings and router cut aluminum "yard art" of my graphic images; the opportunity to make them available to you is now just a click away on our SHOP menu
Want to know more about how these images you can purchase were created?
Mezzotint print
The image is "carved" into a copper plate that has been "rocked" to make a surface that will accept the ink. The rich blackness and softness of the image are my favorite values of completing a mezzotint.
Handcolored linocut
Ater carving this small Neoregelia, I decided to hand paint the image to enhance it's beauty for reproduction onto T-shirts and paper. The coloring process helps illuminate the many layers of green in the leaf structure along with the colorful bloom in the center. In this design I surrounded the plant image with a frame of black resulting in the plant image being both inside and extendings outside.
I like the end result of contrast.
Linoleum block print
This print, originally made as a linocut is available in the form of a poster. The bromeliads were first carved into a piece of linoleum mounted on plywood, when ink was applied to the remaining linoleum surface, then hand rubbed onto the paper placed over the block, a rich feeling of multiple plants of different genre appear in a grouping. This image was then reporduced to a poster sold by me at the 1996 World Bromeliad conference in Orlando FL. It is available as a poster with the conference dates/location OR without.
Aluminum
"Yard Art"
Created by a computerized router using my graphic designs, originally drawn and carved on a linoleum block, the aluminum pieces can be hung or as shown in this picture of my yard- stuck into the gound to add images to your garden/driveway that will withstand the weather and not need any care or maintanence to look attractive everyday.
