My prints and drawings are inspired by works of art I’ve studied while living in Rome, Italy. Through intensely drawn traditional etchings, I re-imagine historic Italian artworks in my contemporary aesthetic. I create this imagery as a personal challenge to express the complex and timeless emotions of power, art-making, and sexual interaction. The monumental fragments of Italian sculpture in Rome have inspired several of my latest prints. This print was etched both traditionally and electrolytically using a custom system I've created at Kansas State University.
