Prints that
do not sit
quietly.

Illustrator and printmaker in Austin. Risograph, screen print, and the occasional mural that got out of hand.

About

I make loud prints about quiet things. Most of the work starts as a drawing about somewhere in Texas and ends up somewhere less literal.

Nine years printing, four of them running my own press. I take commissions for editorial, packaging, and album work, and I teach a risograph workshop twice a year for people who have never printed anything.

How a commission works

01

Talk

Thirty minutes on what it is for, where it will hang or print, and what you already know you do not want.

02

Roughs

Three directions in pencil within a week. We kill two of them together, which is the useful part.

03

Proof

A physical proof pulled and posted to you. Screens read colour differently from paper and always will.

04

Run

Edition printed, signed and numbered. Files supplied if the work is heading to press elsewhere.

2 to 4 wksTypical turnaround, roughs to delivered edition
From $900Editorial and packaging commissions
50 to 300Usual edition size, larger runs quoted
