ARTIST’S STATEMENT

I work in the media of etching, drypoint, lithography, direct gravure and photogravure. The work begins with drawn studies or photographs, which will form the basis for the resulting print. I choose the subsequent print medium - the crisp etching line, the soft lithograph line, the rich drypoint line, or the gravure method – to reinforce the meaning intended within the image.

My subject matter is natural forms, often the overlooked, or less remarked. There is always an initial ‘wow’ factor which draws me in. This can be purely visual - a perfection of form perhaps, or the subject’s resonance with those historical, ethical or environmental matters which interest me - or both. I often use these natural forms in conjunction with architectural form to reinforce the connection between the human endeavour and the natural world.
