About us
Artful Printmaking, Mixed Media and Beyond!
Are you drawn to 2D Art that is all about texture?
Printmaking is that medium.
Gel plate mono-printing is an affordable means of printmaking that doesn’t require a press or other costly equipment.
Come join me in my Berkeley home to learn about making ART through gel plate printmaking. Not only will you learn a great deal about methods and materials, but you will be able to absorb what makes art, well, ART.
My classes are accessible to students of all levels.
About me: I hold an MFA with a background in painting, traditional photography and printmaking. In addition to making my own Art, I have been a college instructor and teacher of Art since 1997.
Come join the excitement!
