Prints
These prints are created using zinc plates on which the images are developed using a variety of drawing and soft ground processes. They are then printed in limited editions. In some instances the skies have been tinted by rolling a tone onto an inked, wiped plate. In other cases, color is added by hand after the prints have dried.
Prints are matted in cream, acid-free mats.
Framed prints are matted and framed in silver chrome frames with plexiglas.
Prints can be purchased without mats or frames – prices on request.
A Little Lake
This landscape is a composite that grew directly out of my imagination and scenes I’ve witnessed at various times and places. It began with the lake and grew from there, an imagined wondrous valley in the throes of early spring green. It would, I believe, be a grand place to visit and explore.

Acadia Days
This print began on a trip to Acadia with a group of students. We were rock climbing, and I was at the base of the cliff supervising students’ take-off at the base of a rappel and tying on to a climb. There were quite a few hours of waiting time in this process since we had a group of eight inexperienced climbers. It was inevitable in that time that I saw a lot of the cliff, and decided to do this print.

Amish Winter
This is Lancaster County, my home base, at its winter best. The haystacks are a good sign that this is likely an Amish farm. Therefore, the title more or less wrote itself.

April Bloodroot
Among the very first volunteers to break through in my spring garden are treasured bloodroot plants. I love the way these flowers look like miniature tulips, open fully in the sun, and fold or fan their leaves like peacocks. The fact that the Indians valued these plants for their ability to produce a red dye for baskets gives them an impressive pedigree as well.

August Bouquet
By August, the garden has passed its peak and is winding down. The daylilies are gone, leaving only their foliage as a backdrop for the last hollyhocks and blue sage to combine and give me summer’s last bouquets.

Beaver Valley ‘78
This scene is from a Pennsylvania winter. The valley is near Williamsport. The rolling hills seem to go on endlessly, and it is clear from the evidence that shows on the land that this is farmland at rest beneath the snow.

Bee Feeders
One summer day when I visited Tatton Park in England, a section of the gardens featured a “forest” of sunflowers that were heavily populated by bees getting drunk on nectar. The perimeter of the sunflower planting was provided by an elaborate construction of espaliered pear trees, heavily laden with fruit. I like to think the bees hang out there all season, tending to fruit blossoms before their sunflower party season in August.

Birch, Lake, Hills
This is a scene that can be found in many spots in Maine, Vermont, or New Hampshire since all the necessary ingredients exist in those states and combine themselves with slight variations in different venues. The original drawing for this print was one I did many years ago on a camping trip in Maine. I would be hard pressed to find the exact location again, but looking at this image can take me right back to the scene that morning when I looked out of my tent.

Blackwater
On Maryland’s Eastern Shore lies the Blackwater Wildlife Refuge. It is filled with marshes like the one depicted in this print, and in Fall it rings wildly with the cries of Canada geese as they gather for the great reunion that starts their winter in this location. Clearly the geese know a good thing when they see it.

Boot Hill, Danville
This small family cemetery near Danville, Pennsylvania had an inviting starkness. Because the stones were all gathered beneath this one tree on a rise, it somehow suited my mental image of the classic “boot hill” of cowboy westerns, places I envision as lonely, isolated rises that can be seen for a good distance.
