A playful beach pattern hides the message “SEAS THE DAY” using barcode-inspired lines and binary code. Discover how umbrellas, beach balls, chairs, and a sandcastle transform hidden language into handmade block-print art.

Have you ever noticed a tiny golden acorn hiding in one of my hand-printed textiles? It’s more than a charming detail; it’s a secret symbol of variation, happy accidents, and the beauty of making things by hand.

Discover how a little acorn, inspired by surprises in my garden, became a special marker for one-of-a-kind variations in my prints and why finding one means you’ve discovered something extra special.

Before the blocks, there was the landscape. Discover how hand-dyed cotton tea towels became the foundation for my block-printed textiles, using fiber-reactive dyes to create unpredictable fields of color inspired by dirt, grass, water, and sky.

Are they mistakes, or are they part of the message? Discover the hidden mysteries, coded messages, and unexpected imperfections woven into my artwork—and why sometimes, a little error can make an original even more intriguing.

First comes the ocean, then the story. I use pre-reduced indigo to create shifting blue landscapes on tea towels and fabric, then layer hand-carved blocks over the dyed surface to create ocean-inspired textile patterns.
