Relief

Relief printmaking is what many people envision when they think about printing: ink is applied to a raised surface, allowing the blank paper to show through wherever the surface has been carved away. If you have ever used a rubber stamp—or even left a finger- or lip-print on a surface—you have created a relief print!

Some of my artwork created with upcycled materials is now available at Circsus in downtown Milwaukie! You can also check out my work in person at the events below.
