Monotype - etching ink on Hosho paper

h: 39 w: 29 d: 1 (cms).

My process with this work was firstly to create intaglio lines by scoring a tough rectangle of industrial-grade plastic. After that, I covered the plastic block with etching ink (using two colours, blended with the application roller), which I then selectively removed using a variety of tools (including cotton buds, abrasive pads, various scrapers etc) to create the image. It is impossible to know exactly how a work like this will appear when printed (at high pressure, onto Hosho tissue paper, dampened with a sprayer moments before printing, in order to capture the intaglio lines). If a print like this goes wrong, the image has to be abandoned and the work redone from scratch.

£325 (As exhibited.)

Etching ink on Hahnemühle 300gsm

h: 12 w: 43 d: 1 (cms).

This work is a contiguous polyptych image. I like making 'panelled' images like this, especially where the subject is a wider, landscape, format - dividing the image in this way feels, to me, an interesting way to better capture the experience of 'seeing' a 'wide angle' scene.

£325 (As exhibited.)
£275 (Unframed print.)
