Recent Work:
These mixed media letterpress pieces are an exploration of my family’s Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) heritage. The initial hand printed layers of were made from hand carved linocut blocks, the images carved were an interpretation of traditional Ojibwe beading patterns.
Once the blocks were set into the printing press, the paper was printed multiple times, one pass and block arrangement for each colour added. The art piece was then mounted to a birch cradled panel and multiple layers of acrylic texture medium and washes of paint were added in response to the printed image to conceal or reveal aspects to the viewer.
These are available from Bluerock Gallery, online or in person, click here for more details.
