“Anonymous Was a Woman” ~ Virginia Woolf, 2024, $3000

For most of my life, I have maintained a daily ritual of drawing in my sketchbook. In 2004, I learned the art of hand-printing stone lithographs, and since then, these daily sketches have become essential in developing concepts for my lithographic editions.

My sketches often convey the women in my family and feature a series of personal symbols that recur across multiple pieces. I prefer to work from memory rather than using photo references, allowing my drawings to emerge from lived experience.

This Wally Workman portfolio project has provided a wonderful opportunity to experiment, explore new ideas, and expand my creative vision. I’m excited to share this new body of work and look forward to transforming these ideas into lithographs.

Drawing Suite comes in handmade engraved clamshell box with museum gloves and artist statement.
