DOWNSTAIRS CREATIONS
ABOUT ME

After studying photography and art in high school and college I drifted away from both until about ten years ago.
I live and work in the small community of Big Bear Lake, California.

The beauty that surrounds me brought me back to photography and that, in turn, brought me back to art.

After almost a 25 year sabbatical, I have a lot of catching up to do.

MEDIUM


My small studio is the entire lower level of our home and is a true sanctuary. Acrylic has been the medium that I always seem to fall back on, but I have truly learned to love block printing.  Wood and linocut prints are such an adventure, never quite knowing what the results will be.

WOODBLOCK TECHNIQUE

I use both multiple blocks and the single block reduction techniques
