Research Focus

My primary research interest is fine press letterpress printing techniques along with contemporary and alternative type high blocks for innovative letterpress printing. The engineering of new and innovative matrices and unexpected use of traditional matrices is at the core of my printing research imperative to expand and enhance the vocabulary of techniques for letterpress printing.
