I started printmaking in 2019 as a way to deal with a major life change (and the subsequent life chaos that went with it). When Covid hit it was my main coping mechanism, and when things began to open up again I dove straight into showing and selling my work.

I’ve still got quite a lot to learn about printmaking, but I feel like I have a decent handle on technique. What I need to learn more about is drawing. I need to step away from the tablet and get back to basics. Pencil, pen, paper, form, light, shadow, and lots of crosshatching.

I plan on sketching once a day, one page at a time, on a moleskin journal. Blogging will happen in weekly or bi-weekly chunks.
