The natural world around me has always been the starting point of my work, whether it be jewelry, paintings or prints. My new series of prints uses the alala, endangered Hawaiian crows, as a metaphor for hope and change. I was able to see the birds (of which there are only 67) at the Keauhou Bird Center in Volcano. Multiple plate woodblock printing satisfies my love of craft and provides a vehicle to experiment with color, composition and content.
