Recent work includes monotypes, carborundum printing, polyester lithographs using Pronto Plates, a series of pollen images which use multiple techniques. Check this page often as I will try to update new material frequently.

| Leaves, Nests, Flowers, Fruit |
|
Leaves, Nests, Flowers, Fruit holds just what you expect. Maple leaves, ginkgos, peonies, pomegranates and pears. My scientific training has led me to focus on the details of found objects and to render them in accurate detail.

| Still Life |
|
Still Life offers a view of inanimate objects outside the heading of Leaves, Fruit, Flowers and Nests which have their very own page. Household items such as whiskbrooms and chairs are some of the subjects found in this section.
|
Anise Series features a collection of monoprints with repetetive curling shapes of dried flowers. Bright colors, combination of monotypes, acid line etching and sugar lift aquatint define this series of prints.
|
 |
| Trees |
|
Trees are some of my favorite images. Palm trees - Carpinteria Palms, Royal Palms, Coconut Palms - are so fun to draw with their skinny trunks and full heads of fronds. Santa Cruz hands over Montery Cypresses and Live Oaks as well.

 |
| Animals |
|
Animals includes a range of critters. From seastars to Siamese cats, horses to antelope. Animals are so much easier to illustrate than humans - they are more forgiving and don't complain if they don't come out perfectly.

 |
| Abstracts |
|
Abstracts includes more whimsical images. Round shapes and sweeping loops rendered in aquatint prevail. Experimental techniques combining paint, etchings, silkscreen, graphite and inks are found on this page.

 |
| Bubble Series |
|
Bubble Series is a fun collection of perfectly square prints of colorful dancing circles against aquatint backgrounds. Inspired by the freedom and transparency of water bubbles this series is rich with vibrant colors.

 |
| Landscapes |
|
Landscapes page has a number of scenics rendered in acid line etching, aquatint and drypoint. Views of California predominate.
