Behind the Scenes: The Milieu Collection

Behind the Scenes: The Milieu Block Print Collection

The subjects depicted in this collection played a formative role in my upbringing and childhood memories. From shucking oysters in the windowless Mohawk Tavern in my hometown of Monroe, Louisiana, to the lively parties that my parents would host on the weekends, these pieces remind me of so many wonderful moments shared with those I love. Milieu means ‘social environment,’ and for me, it’s such a fitting title for this colorful block print collection.

6 of these pieces come framed in a cherry wood custom frame with white lacquered sides, while the remaining pieces are unframed (with the option of adding a frame). Each piece is roughly 14” x 11” on hand-deckled edge paper and a total of 18” x 15” framed.
