Abstract Acrylic Monoprint
"I like trying things, I like the curiosity of it." — Frank O. Gehry
My creative life has always been a dance between different disciplines—from music and movement to ceramics and the written word. While my roots reach back to the technical foundations of linocut and other printing techniques, I found my artistic home in April 2025 - the vibrant, spontaneous world of acrylic gel printing.
My monoprints are not just images; they are records of curiosity. Each piece is an exploration of texture, shape, and color, born from a place of play and the love for the printing process.
My creative process
I find my best work in the "what-ifs." Through a process of color layering and continuous experimentation, I embrace the unexpected, turning spontaneous discoveries into finished works of art.
Every piece I create is unique and a "one-of-a-kind". There are NO reproductions here; each piece is a singular unrepeatable moment! I don't always start with a specific meaning in mind, but the work always carries the same spirit: a sense of surprise, a spark of joy, and a little bit of magic.
Gel Printing Plates Sizes: 8"x 10" and 9"x12" inches
My unique & original Monoprint Zines
A zine (pronounced "zeen") is a small, self-published booklet that serves as a unique canvas for creative expression. Each one starts as a single sheet of paper, which I carefully fold and transform into a multi-page booklet. It's a tactile, pocket-sized way to experience art.
Each of my zines is an original work of art, handcrafted using an 8" x 10" gel printing plate. When folded, the piece functions as an intimate art booklet, showcasing eight distinct, unique monoprint segments. Unfold the zine to reveal the full-scale original print.
