My name is Jason and I'm a traditional printmaker based in Cary, North Carolina.

Traditional printmaking is the term for a group of processes for making prints of images the analog, old-fashioned way. I mainly focus on relief printing, which involves carving an image onto a block of wood or linoleum, rolling ink over the raised surface, and pressing it onto paper to form the image.

All of my work is made by myself from the comfort of my little work room. I draw the pictures by hand, I carve the block by hand, and print the image myself with my own press. My use of digital tools is largely restricted to scanning and resizing drawings for transfer onto the block.

I graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2007 with a degree in digital arts, but my time there was instrumental to the development of my sense for stark black-and-white images via traditional ink drawing, which later on transformed into my printmaking work.

Since I picked up printmaking in 2011 or so, I've made dozens of blocks and hundreds prints, and since 2018 have been showing my work in art festivals and galleries across North Carolina. I am lucky to have my work hanging on countless walls across the world. This web site is not an exhaustive list of my work, but a collection of what I consider my core works.

Cheers, Jason
