Bio |
I am a Northwest book artist inspired by found objects and nature. My poet son, Derek Pyle, and I run Jubilation Press together. I work in a broad range of media integrating etchings, letterpress printing and photography into artist books. My farmhouse studio in Ashland, Oregon features artist books, printmaking and photography. I love the age old presses and techniques of printmaking and letterpress, like the artists who began this work in the fifteenth century. My work is part of several collections including:The Honourable Thabo Mbeki,Past President of the Republic of South AfricaThe Florean Museum of RomaniaThe California Palace Legion of HonorThe Oakland MuseumBrown UniversityReed CollegeSwarthmore CollegeUCLAUniv of California Santa BarbaraUniversity of PittsburghYale UniversityThe Book Club of CaliforniaThe New York Public LibraryThe San Francisco Public LibraryMy Ph.D. is in Organization Development and I worked in this field for 14 years with large corporations and several universities. I have been teaching and mentoring students since 1969. After 26 years in the San Francisco Bay area I moved to Ashland, Oregon where I founded and ran a gallery for four years. Now I am a full time artist, happily printing letterpress broadsides on my Vandercook and creating artist books. I started Poets On the Loose in 2009.
