Solar Eclipse Dream

Couldn’t sleep and wrote a poem about it.

A few fern prints.  

Here are a few solar plate etchings that I have created.  The first is the gardens of Real Alcazar in Sevilla, Spain.  The bottom right is Jeronimos Monastery in Lisbon, Portugal.  The bottom left is the Torre del Oro in Sevilla.

Here’s a tiny pamphlet book that I stitched from a collage of monotypes that I printed.  Now to write some micro poems...

I have created a few books! Here are a few pictures of a double-sided accordion book that I made with some of my monotype prints.

Happy first day of winter!  Here’s a wintry poem. 

My print will be included in “Under Pressure: Summer Printmaking Exhibition” at the Cambridge Center for Adult Education!  

Some woodcut prints I made in class.  

My poetry chapbook City Songs is now available from Blue Lyra Press!  It appears alongside beautiful chapbooks by poets Aaron Bauer and Meghan Sterling.  3 chapbooks in 1 volume!

My poem “Urban Winter Birds” first appeared  One Sentence Poems and will also soon appear in my chapbook City Songs (Blue Lyra Press, September 2016).  Here is a screenprint version of “Urban Winter Birds” that I made by creating an emulsion screen.  The poem itself is hand-written.
