Decaffeinated - screen print
This print was done for a print exchange entitled "Whoops" and depicts a happy housewife accidentally making accursed decaf coffee for her husband. I was obviously looking at some tacky '50s illustration art at the time. 14x11", edition undetermined.
I am an artist producing primarily ceramics and screen prints. I received a BFA and Philosophy Major from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My output meanders from functional ceramics to aleatoric screen prints to more conceptual clay sculpture. I'm interested in intention versus arbitrariness in a work of art, and blurring the lines between art, science, and philosophy.
