" Paddling on a quiet lake, I am always excited at the thought of seeing a loon up close.
On this occasion, it was a soft summer day with an overcast sky. Carefully dipping my
paddle, I moved soundlessly around a point, and there they were - a pair of loons!
They moved out past the lily pads with stately dignity, sensitive to my presence, but
with no sense of panic. Then I became aware of the reason for the slow pace
but alert demeanor. There were two baby loons. They had just recently hatched,
and they were headed out to the open lake, perhaps for the first time."

ORIGINAL PRINTS
An original print is one where there is no other original, just a plate or a stone or
a screen, etc. The process of original printmaking appeals to me because it is a
human process; it involves no complex optical equipment other than my own eyes.
I believe that technology often searates us from nature, and I like the idea that
my original prints are made by my hand.
