November 2009
I just received my copy of the May-August 2009 issue of the North American Review who licensed one of my etchings to accompany a poem by Wilfred Owen. The art director found me through my ETSY account by searching for the keyword 'jasmine'.

Welcome. For the past sixteen years I have been enjoying the printmaking process, the inks, mess and surprises involved. Techniques in printmaking have changed over this short time - from the beginning where we etched metal plates with corrosive acids to today's relatively safe polyester lithography plates.
It's all an experiment and an exercise in patience. If you have never tried printmaking - the transfer of ink from a matrix onto a piece of paper - I suggest you give it a try the next time you learn of a class offered in your area. It is fun. That's why we do it.
Take some time to learn about the process on this site and visit the links scattered about. The more you learn about printmaking, the more you will appreciate the process involved in pushing ink into paper. Send an email if you have any questions or so I can add your name to my mailing list.
If you are interested in purchasing any of my prints please feel free to visit my e-commerce shop at ETSY.
Happy printing,
Stacy
