I Don’t Believe in Artists’ Statements
I think the work should speak for itself.
However, my work is based on experiences and observations.
Sometimes I get ideas and illustrate them. Other times I’ll see things and draw them. Sometimes it’s a combination of the two.
My works are all original Prints done in the Etching medium.
I work on copper Plates, drawing with a needle through an Acid resistant ground. The image is Bitten into the metal with Acid, and I individually ink and pull a Print from the Plate.
