“The content of my work is flexible. One print might be realistic and the next abstract. My thinking is always in a constant state of flux, and the ideas for a print accommodate the thought of the day. I am passionate about the environment, my family and take most of my visual cues from patterns in the natural world. Often the print is sparked by words or can just as easily begin with a simple shape that speaks to me. The process of carving and inking a plate provide an opportunity for experimentation and play. Not knowing exactly how the print will come out is a big part of the adventure. My work has dual purpose: Harper Printmaking Studio exists not only for me, but for the printmaking community in our area. The Open Press Group has been going strong since 2012. Other artists share the studio space and presses, which not only makes sense, but it is also mutually inspiring as we all learn from each other. Workshops and classes are available by contacting me directly.”
