Artist & Printmaker
In an effort to spread joy and affordable art I have launched a mini print vending machine at Cornerstone Ogunquit. Each print is hand silk screened by me and hopefully charmingly imperfect and one of a kind. Can’t get to Ogunquit? A small number of print bundles will be available to order via online here.
Interested in a mini print vending machine in your establishment? Send me an inquiry!
I’m thrilled to be featured in the 2026 Gallery Guide in Decor Maine. Endless thanks to Kerr-Jones Gallery for championing my work!
I had a wonderful opportunity to share my work and process with the community this spring at PMAC. It was a rare chance to see a full body of prints along side the actual wood blocks, something I thought the life long creative learners of the PMAC community would truly enjoy.
PMAC took the time to interview me and write a lovely post about the work and the exhibition. You can read it here.
In fall of 2025 I had the thrill of being included in the CMCA Biennial. To have my work on display and interacted with in the beautiful museum galleries and reaching so many visitors was a dream come true. It was an honor to be included amongst such esteemed artists and peers and to be able ot discuss my work in such a forum. Heres to making more joyful, unsellable work in the future.
Thrilled to exhibit once again with my friends Alicia Ethridge, Ashley Normal, and Meghan Samson. Play | Ground features playful works inspired by the confluence of mothering and art making. On view May 1- June 1 2025 at the New Hampshire Art Association.
Children discover the world through play—exploring, building, breaking, and reimagining without hesitation. As mothers and artists, we move through similar cycles, navigating shifting identities, unpredictable rhythms, and the ever-evolving realities of care. Play becomes our method of adaptation, a way to meet change with curiosity rather than resistance.
Through the creative process we delight in experimentation, imperfection, and surprise. Our work reflects the balancing act of motherhood—the unseen labor, fleeting moments, and creative resilience found in chaos. Embracing play, we discover meaning, transformation, and the beauty in the unknown.
I was honored to be included in a prestigious curation of contemporary peers for this exhibition at the University of New Hampshire.
The University of New Hampshire (UNH), in collaboration with Katzman Contemporary Projects of Dover, the Rochester Museum of Fine Arts of Rochester, and See Saw Art of Manchester, is proud to present NFS: Not For Sale, an invitational exhibition showcasing the work of nearly 40 artists.

My works for this show were unsellable chlorophyl prints, these works will not last, as with time they will brown and crumble. I made these works while home with 3 young children in a suburban neighborhood, grappling with the new identity of housewife and mother I found myself wearing after decades of professional and personal independence.
I’m thrilled to have been invited to show a collection of work for my first solo show at The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts.
“Kristy’s exhibition showcases her exploration of domestic life through printmaking, using repetition to represent the often-redundant tasks of feeding a young family. Her works “Spectra” and “Meditations on Mealtime” highlight the beauty in the every day and provide relatable experiences for viewers. Kristy’s personal quote about the exhibition is a testament to her dedication to the art of caretaking and the relatable nature of her works.“

Eric & Julee Katzman have created such a solid sense of community in the short time since they’ve opened Katzman Contemporary Projects. While I’m always thrilled anyone anywhere would like to include my work in exhibition, I truly am honored to be considered peers with the artists in this show.
My work included this year is the first in a series of prints where I am remixing intaglio prints of my kids’ plastic plates with relief block prints of kitchen utensil mark making. The work in this expansive series are studies in texture and form, and commentary on the daily mental gymnastics needed to feed a family of five with varying dietary preferences.
I was thrilled to have a sweet woodcut print included in All Together Now at See/Saw Gallery in Manchester New Hampshire. All Together Now was an open call, salon style exhibition featuring artworks submitted by the artists, then juried and curated by See Saw Art owner, Amy Regan. The print has since been donated to be a part of Rochester Museum of Fine Arts collection. See more information here.
I’m honored to have six of my woodblock prints on display as a part of a two-woman show with Rachel Burgess at George Marshall Store Gallery.
Rachel and I connected via instagram a little more than a year ago and knew that her series of seaweed monoprints and my nature inspired woodblocks; both inspired by early motherhood and the Maine Seacoast; were a great pair. We’re thrilled that Kate at George Marshall agreed and we look forward to seeing them talk to each other in real space and time in the dreamy, light filled, historic gallery on the river. Read the full exhibition description here. The exhibition is running in concert with two other exhibitions, eight artist/mothers in total, about the intersection of caregiving and creating.
