I am obsessed with those extraordinary moments that surface within the mundane. Maybe it’s a fragment of murmured harmony as you brush through a grassy field, a blink of joining pattern in branches overhead, or just the way a ray of light dances across the lake on a gentle misty morning. However ordinary the source, the fugitive beauty of an instant catches you and seizes your soul as a perfect moment of existence. It may be a moment of calm or peace, or maybe of excitement, awe or joy—but that right there, that fleeting glimpse of the energy and connection of the macrocosm—that’s why I make art.
–Frank Lloyd Wright
The making of a fine art print of course begins with the creation of the image. But then that image also has to be a physical object you can hang on your wall. In traditional printmaking the process of creating the image also creates the physical print, but with a digital original as many of my works are, you have to get the image from the screen onto the paper. I approach the making of a digital print with the same care and attention to detail that I do when I am making a lithograph or etching on a traditional press.
