The Story of Peninsula Prints

After spending summers on Mackinac Island as a child, I longed for a way to experience my favorite place even while at home in Metro Detroit.

As an artist, I became fixated on creating art inspired by Mackinac, but nothing truly captured how it felt. That changed when I discovered reduction printmaking: a process rooted in patience and intention, with a layered, nostalgic aesthetic that mirrors the emotive focus of memory.

I began creating piece after piece inspired by Mackinac Island, developing my signature style along the way. After selling my first original print on the island in 2017, Peninsula Prints was born.

Today, Peninsula Prints has expanded beyond Mackinac Island to places where nature thrives, but the focus remains the same: creating art that captures the feeling and memory of a place.

If you’re drawn to art that tells a story, and craftsmanship you can feel, I am so glad you're here!
