This year's card art was created using the ancient practice of printmaking. As the video demonstrates, first I created the art, then I transferred the mirror image of the drawing onto a carving block. From there, I created test prints and tweaked the carving until I got exactly the effect I wanted. I'm very proud of this unique methodology and design and hope you enjoy sending these fun Halloween cards to friends and family.

My 2025 Halloween design is an homage to classic Hallow's Eve themes: a blood moon glowing in the night sky, a witch's hand gripping a broom, a spooky ghost, and a creepy spider weaving its web.
This year I'm using my Halloween artwork on two products: a 5" square journal and 4" square coasters. (Note that dimensions may vary as all items are hand-produced.)

There is nothing more captivating than the sight of leafless trees against the bright full moon. This limited edition of 20 prints celebrates crisp nights, fresh air and the return of fall.
The art is roughly 8" wide by 8" tall. It is printed using Winsor & Newton water-soluble oil paint (color: Lamp Black) and hand-pressed on acid-free paper. It is packaged in a clear sleeve with a backer board (no mat or frame.) Price is $60 per print which includes PA sales tax and local shipping.

Each year, when the leaves fall, it's my signal to pull out my favorite sweaters and flannel lounge pants and become the true homebody that I am.

The art is roughly 6" wide by 8" tall. It is printed using Winsor & Newton water-soluble oil paint (color: Burnt Sienna) and hand-pressed on acid-free 9" x 12" paper. It is packaged in a clear sleeve with a backer board (no mat or frame.) Price is $60 per print which includes PA sales tax and local shipping.
