Block Printed Holiday Cards

Jill Evans-Kavaldjian has a background in painting and printmaking.

Her paintings, drawings, and mixed media work focus on the relationship between light, shadow, and form, and how these affect our sense of reality.

Her prints are bolder, with strong graphic elements and lighthearted humor. She has taught block print making workshops to students of all ages at the Waterford Craft School, and demonstrated and taught her craft in our booth at the 78th Waterford Fair.
