Which Reality is Virtual? - Combination Digital and Screen Print:


A print created for a class assignment, from about two years ago, for which we had to combine a digitally printed image with a screen printing image. In this print, the head, goggles, and monitor are all digitally printed, and the images on the screen of the monitor are screen printed on top of it. The pictures I used for this all came off of google images, and while I photoshopped and rearranged them, I do not claim them to be my own.

Screen Print: The Joker as Duality


A piece created for an assignment from a class I took two year ago. We had to create multiple copies of a playing card design using screen printing. The card had to have a proper front and back, and we had to use at least two different colors of ink. Then, once the assignment was completed, we would turn in our cards and instead of receiving them back after grading, everyone's cards would be traded around and given to others.

I decided to go with the Joker, and use black and red since they go together well and don't require any mixing of new colors of ink. I tried to play with the themes of yin/yang, reflections and duality, and I made a point to incorporate the symbols of the four suits of the cards somehow.

This is the photoshop image I used to make my print, not the actual print itself; since I didn't get any of my own card prints back, so I didn't have any to scan. However, I did get a bunch of cool cards that my classmates had created.

Lithographic Print: Her Wings are Her Cage


A print created for an assignment for a class I took about two years ago. We had to use three different colors of ink, and print each of them using separately carved pieces of wood or linoleum. On a note of interest, it was while working on carving the images for this print that I sliced my thumb open with my carving tools. Ink on paper.

Lithographic Prints: The Mountains and the Sea


Two lithographic prints created for a class I took about two years ago. They're the first two litho pieces I ever made, which is why they're a bit simple and rough. Inspired a little by goddesses. Ink on paper.
