I was impressed by the magnificent light and its reflections between the stones on the beach. Some stones also look a bit like seals resting on the sand. Sometimes, for the dark spots a little further away, you have to look closely to see if they are actually stones. Yes, they are stones; the seals are not resting on the beach, but on the sandbanks a little further out…

In my woodcuts, I use ‘short’ (= thick) oil-based ink. The various printing passes do not always align perfectly. I love the traces of the carving that have picked up just a little ink, thus showing a ‘stain’ in the print. This keeps the whole piece lively and spontaneous. Additionally, after all those layers of color are applied one over the other, a beautiful, almost ‘painted’ surface emerges, comparable to oil paint.
