Another small linoblock print on paper. Linoblock is a tactile artform that can be done with very low light due to the bold contrast of the permanent marker on the light-colored block. You can feel the relief being created as you are working- quite a change from 2D only processes. For more information about printing, visit https://inktankprintstudios.com/
I had to put this one on the list. Not only was this a staple and the bane of every soldiers stomach it’s also the subject of one of my favorite excerpts from the “Tasting History With Max Miller: Hardtack and Grog” video. IYKYK Full episode link below:
I'm an artist working in Colorado. I prefer mediums that allow me be as tonal or as structed as I please. The landscape provides countless joys for me as I attempt to understand its patterns.
In 2009, I graduated from the Maryland Institute, College of Art in Baltimore, MD with a Bachelor of Fine Arts with an emphasis on Drawing. Here, I created works that appeared in the 2008 issue of Drawing Magazine.
While attending Colorado State University, I taught Painting, Figure Painting, and Principles of Design as a Graduate Instructor. I graduated with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Painting in 2014.
Since then, I have worked to be a part of the artist community of Northern Colorado. I was one of the first members of the Gallery 970 Co-op in Loveland. I am a member of the Northern Colorado Artist Community in LaPorte where I am active as an instructor.
