Hi!

Having published poems under the name Kathie-Louise Clarke, I find myself also going by Persephone Print, so welcome to this little section of the internet about “us”.

When my dear childhood friend invited me over to play about in her new print studio, I had no idea that I would be embarking on an obsessive but joyful journey into the world of printmaking.

The process of transferring creative thought to paper, to linoleum, and then carving the block is a labor of love. The excitement of pulling the first print… and the next twenty is hard to beat. There is beauty in the imperfection, challenge in letting that ‘blemish’ stand and marvel at the few that come out just the way I imagined!

I am having a thoroughly good time creating the pieces you can see here in my online store, and at a few places around Oakland, CA, where I live and work.

I mainly make art prints, but also create greeting cards, notebooks and other small items.

Please get in touch if you would like talk about a commission or would like to stock my work.
