An original print is conceived, executed on the plate, and then hand pulled by the artist using any of four printmaking methods or combinations thereof These methods are relief, intaglio, lithography, and silk screening.

The relief process in my recent works includes the woodcut and the linocut. When printing in relief, an image is drawn on the plate (wood or linoleum) and the areas not to be printed are carved out of the block leaving the uncut surfaces or parts to be printed in relief

I apply a thin layer of oil based paint in different colors to the surface of the block with a roller. Paper is then placed over the inked block and pressure is applied by rubbing the back of the paper with a wooden spoon or by passing the block or plate (with paper) through a wringer type press. Each print is unique because I use a different color combination in order to create different moods and expressions in. each work of art.
