My designs are inspired by nature and by my passion for color. I have always appreciated functional objects representative of good design. Each of my hand printed textiles is unique – individually printed, one at a time, using a process that begins with carving my drawings onto a pliable rubber surface which is mounted on wood to create a stamp.
Once I finalize my design, I hand paint and print the stamp again and again to create impressions that mirror gardens, both real and imagined.
Creating beautiful things and caring for the natural world are important to me. The fabrics I print on are made of natural fibers and the paints are food safe and heat set, to withstand rigorous use and repeated washing. My cards and wrapping paper are printed in Maine at Franklin Printing, a family owned business, a wind powered facility. I package and ship my goods in materials that have a minimal impact on our planet.
