Focused on etching and the

monoprint processes, she discovered many similarities between clay and printmaking. Abby notes, “In the last decade, I have been investigating 2- and 3-dimensional art making with a mix of mediums and processes. My Butterpie tableware line, deco plates, wall tiles, low-relief collaged prints, shadow boxes, and stage set models are evidence of these interests.
I now transfer my print images to ceramic decal paper and fire them directly onto my clay. My collaged print backdrops appear in my boxes and stage sets. My interest in the carved clay surfaces and printmaking have resulted in hybrid objects that support all my sensibilities, explore  variations within the matrix, and

produce a series of unique

related works.”
