Freeport Art Museum
121 N Harlem Ave
Freeport, IL

Solo Exhibit open through March 14th
An exhibit of my new prints featuring hand carved woodblock prints with elements of letterpress and screen printing. New work exploring the prairie, healing, nature, and beauty through the pain I've experienced in the last three years.

**Small special "today was tomorrow" letterpress prints will be available in the gift shop at the Freeport Art Museum during the month long exhibit or until they run out! Limited run of 50 but each is unique. Some portions will be donated to the Natural Land Institute to help heal, maintain, and protect the prairies, wetlands, and special natural spaces in the Northern Illinois area.**
