Imagery on Clay
My art training spanned many mediums. One that has always fascinated me is that of print making. I have been silk screening off and on since childhood. In addition to silk screening on clay I have been experimenting with laser print decals and mono-printing with colored slips. In the first gallery I painted on clay with colored slips.
There are two image galleries: Colored Slip Painting and Decal Imagery.

Colored Slip Painting
I mix colored slips to paint on the surface of clay. My inspiration is that of the Ukeyo-e from Japan.

Decal Imagery
The use of imagery printed on decal transfer paper are another avenue in which I enjoy using the clay surface as a canvas. Most of the imagery used here are photos I have taken in the State of Oregon and adapted from Sumi-e brushwork.
