Jill Bergman is a printmaker who often branches out into painting, collage, environmental writing, poetry, and so many other wonderful distractions. Primarily she creates linocuts, a type of printmaking made by carving a sheet of artist linoleum to make something that looks like a big rubber stamp. This is inked and printed by applying pressure to the back of the paper. The linocut prints can be a single color, use colored ink, or be painted afterward.

At The Alley in downtown Steamboat Springs, you might see Jill carving, painting, drawing, making a collage, or (hopefully not) working on the computer. Her etching press is large, heavy, and still living in the home studio, but every other aspect of her artwork happens at The Alley.

Stop by to see finished artwork on the walls, and work in progress on the table. Please email if you’d like help finding the studio, or to make an appointment- jill@jillbergman.com
