“Born near the shores of Lake Michigan, I spent much of my youth out-of-doors where I continue to be most comfortable and spiritually engaged. Nature keeps me in awe by continually challenging me beyond my comfort place. My work is an extension of the anxiety and the freedom I feel when I explore the nearby shoreline of Lake Michigan and new discoveries in unfamiliar places. These experiences are triggers from my imagination. A new relationship begins with the start of each print, taking energy, attention, and passion. I work in hand pulled multi-print media techniques, etching, and woodblock. What I want to say, the materials I work with, is a collaborative process that takes time to develop. My hope is that my work will conjure memories, tap the imagination and allow for an intimate visual experience.”
Born near the shores of Lake Michigan, Lee Ann currently teaches at Muskegon Community College and owns Norris Creek Printmaking Studio. She earned a MFA in printmaking. Lee Ann leads workshops in various printmaking processes.
