Alexa is a linocut artist based in the Chicago area and loves the Great Lakes. By day, she studies the Great Lakes for her PhD research and by night (and weekends) the Great Lakes inspire her art. Lakeside Print Shop aims to create a space to celebrate the Great Lakes and the Midwest in a unique and distinctive medium. Her style focuses on simple lines and shapes to showcase the beauty of the region. She is also inspired by retro and vintage motifs.

In addition to the Great Lakes, she makes art intended to make a statement and things that simply bring her joy. She also enjoys styling my prints in unique framing that enhance the art. Her work has been featured in the Foursided Chicago Mini Art Show in September 2026.
