I like researching the people, histories, and ideas behind my subjects. It allows me to carve with a fuller understanding. Before I discovered printmaking, I spent my time wasting time. The process of carving changed that. It demands presence. Through this practice, I’ve learned to slow down, pay attention, and value the quiet focus that each piece requires.

As I ‘take the steps’ to be healthier, in mind and body, printmaking is a perfect way to make ‘slow art’, to work towards ‘goal oriented projects’ as opposed to today’s ‘reward oriented’ behaviours.
