Art
I’ve always been fascinated with black and white, especially line based imagery. This
fascination has led me through various art forms including my current exploration of
printmaking. Lately, I’ve been concentrating on lines created through relief based
process of lino and wood cuts. I began using the outline of the figure for expressive line
work. Typically, the forms within the images are defined by how I feel at that particular
time that I cut that area, along with personal events that have happened to me and
other various sources.
