Prints and drawings ship flat-packed in acid-free glassine paper, in multiple layers of cardboard to insure safe arrival. Ships nationally and internationally.

This print edition is derived from drawings that deal with the dark histories that lie beneath surface of colonial architecture and ornament in the United States. In construction and ethos, colonial and colonial revival architecture perpetuates the dominant narrative of the history of the US.

For me, drawing these architectural details in graphite is a sort of re-remembering and reworking these harmful narratives, and rewriting the narrative to be more relevant to us today.
