These are some recent prints that I have made.  

I have been focusing on bottles because I believe that they have a certain human characteristic about them.

This is Family of 5.  This was a single run monoprint from plexiglass.  The print was painted on 3 different panes of glass.  The paint was reactivated with a thinner and then run through a printing press.

This is  Bottles on table: A tribute to Morandi.  Morandi was a painter who primarily painted found objects and still life. Morandi had a way of making the blandest desaturated colors beautiful, so this is a tribute to his work and inspiration that has come over me.  It is also a monoprint, but was done in a series.  The colors were highly desaturated by the amount of thinner and by adding thinner to the paper before the addition was run.

This is Standing Together.  It is a small copper print that was made using a sugar lift aquatint process, and a technique called Au pupei, which is a printmaking method for applying color.
