The Tower

“The Tower” was printed on navigational training charts. Cal Maritime students used these charts to learn navigational skills and prepare for licensing exams. The paper is heavy and absorbent. This image was pressed by hand and without a press of any kind.

Fish Pattern Greeting Card

The greeting card design was based on the pattern from a Chinese Qinghua porcelain vase. They are printed on any scraps or appropriately sized cardstock, and more are printed as I need them. I include a greeting card of some sort with all prints that I ship.

“Becalmed”

“Becalmed” was my second successful print. It’s a reduction print made using four blocks. I used a homemade frame as a register. It is printed on Blick Masterprinter Paper, an inexpensive sulphite paper. The smoothness of the paper surface enabled me to print by hand, without a press or other device.

“The Voyage”

“The Voyage” was what I considered to be my first successful linoprint. It’s a reduction print, meaning that I carved more and more out of the same block for each successive printing. I used a frame that my dad made for me as a register. The block was carved and printed four times to create each tone of gray.
