Loree works in various media, although she is better known for her printmaking where she creates works on paper that are reminiscent of old documents, aged textiles or barkcloth. She specializes in intaglio techniques, especially etching, aquatint, drypoint and collagraph. Primarily working with Japanese Washi and often combining surface design techniques for textiles, Loree’s fascination with line, pattern, and architecture continues to inspire her work.
