Artistic Mediums

Eileen’s primary medium for creating her artwork is drawing using colored pencils. These pieces are created on paper using traditional techniques and framed behind glass. Her love of paper led her to become a printmaker with several presses in her studio used for copperplate etching and creating mezzotints. Recently, Eileen has begun oil painting on a copper plate to explore that medium as another way to visually express her ideas.
