Hi.
I’m a contemporary printmaker exploring the shaded area of a venn diagram where traditional printmaking methods and contemporary digital tools overlap. My compositions follow a circular journey, one that begins and ends with the handmade — sketches and photographs at the start, hand-pulled prints at the finish. But, between those points, many of my works wander through a digital realm.
CURRENTLY ON VIEW
Memories & Echoes in Ink
June-July, 2026
I have 32 prints on display at the Community Creative Center in Fayetteville for all of June and July. Among the prints are linocuts, woodcuts and a few of my laser-cutter experimental prints. Visit the CCC website.
COMING SOON
Medium Residency
August-November, 2026
Beginning early August, I will be rotating over 250 works during an 18-week residency at The Medium in Springdale. These works will include near all my previous works plus a few dozen created for and during the residency itself. The Medium has very graciously given me three large walls in their main gallery. Every two weeks I will swap out the works on one of the walls. Each group of images that rotate into the show will share some facet — same subject, same print medium, same experimental idea. This will also be the only time that all 150 works from the “10,000 Print Escape Plan” will be on display together as a single installation. Visit the Medium website.

2025 PROJECT
The 10,000 Print Escape Plan
Over the course of 2025, I created over 10,000 individual prints — relief prints, linocuts, woodcuts, etc. This was all part of a grand personal project to completely replace my unhealthy social media and “doom-scrolling” habits with creative output. (My wife would probably have preferred that I take up jogging or yoga or something, but that’s another story.)
I wasn’t sure how much work I could do, so my first my goal was much more modest. 500 prints. Then 1,000. Then 2,500. Then at some point I actually figured out how to streamline my process and now I’ve got more prints than any one person should ever have.
The 10,000 prints are mini-relief prints, ranging in size from 3×5 index cards up to 8×10 paper size. All are hand-printed, dated, signed, editioned, stamped and sealed in a cellophane bag.
From the start, I knew this would be a community project — to prove all the work and effort was real, I would need to give it all away, all 10,000 prints, completely free.
And now, the time has come.
Most of the prints were printed in editions of 50 or 100. This is what 100 prints on 5×7 paper looks like.
