Lithography

Lithography is a printmaking process based on the principle of oil and water don't mix. The term originates from Greek roots; lithos meaning stone and graphein meaning to write. It is a relatively new printmaking technique invented in 1796 by the German author and actor, Alois Senefelder. The images shown here were drawn on limestone and printed on a Griffin Press. The drawing is made with a grease base crayon and the final product can sometimes be mistaken for an original drawing.

The works I create are a reflection on my celebration of life. Each moment reminds me of the gift of a single breath. I use bright colors and spiral designs to express this joy. Some of my collages use doorways as a metaphor for new opportunities and hope. I work spontaneously and let the image I create lead me to the next step.
