Printmaking, lithography, and cut-paper studies. Color built in layers; an image worked out through ink, pressure, and repetition.
PRINT / PAPER / MOVING IMAGE
01 / On paper
Through a scholarship-supported class at Haystack, I studied introductory printmaking and lithography. I cut paper forms by hand with an X-Acto knife and translated them into printed compositions, exploring color, layering, and abstraction.

02 / The practice
Printmaking taught me to notice what pressure, registration, paper, and ink do to an image. The rough edge and the shifting color are part of how it feels.
That attention follows me into moving image and creative coding. I return to saturated color, feedback, distortion, and layered surfaces—the relationship between a handmade mark and a computed image.
I am a Minneapolis-based creative coder, musician, and moving image artist. My work brings together guitar, live visual processing, and analog printmaking.
03 / Beyond the paper
The same interest in texture and layering runs through my digital work.
Experimental moving image / guitar
Guitar, live visual processing, screen recording, webcam footage, and digital distortion. A layered transmission where sound, body, code, and image meet.
