Hello, I am Heather


Greetings from the mountain. I am a printmaker and all around artist living near Harper's Ferry, WV. This is some recent work.

I'd like to get some grant funding to make these prints on a large scale. The prints shown here are in the 12"x 9" range. All of these prints are multiple plate intaglio, monoprint, and gum transfer layers. I work on 5 or 6 at a time every week or two, when I'm on. I have developed a pretty unusual way of working that involves many steps in a certain sequence that is hard to explain. It never gets dull because I just barely have control of the process.

Thanks for stopping by.

Ballast

Better strike a balance or get spiked!

Shadowbirds

I didn't want to part with this one. It was the spark for so many other prints and became dear and precious to me. Luckily, a good friend bought it so I can visit it anytime.

Repose

This reminds me of easter eggs.

Bloodroot

Back in the days when I only used shades of red and black.
