Created at the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop, New York, and finished in my studio, this work was made in layers using multiple drypoint and monotype plates with water-based paint and oil-based ink. Many include chine colle and hand drawn elements. Each was run through a large flat press at least 30 times.
