| ....Its something about
the way the ink soaks into the damp cotton paper... the weight of the
beveled zinc plates, the felt pads, the old hand crank press..... contemporary
expressions combined with traditional intaglio....aquatint, drypoint,
and mezzotint....and a few completely uncharted techniques altogether
.......then out of nowhere unique textures and shadings... unusual usage
of a variety of a substrates, even some household products...Paperika
a favorite......and probably a fan of Picasso...the artists appears
to be using there representational backbone as a key to the abstract
world....pro framing.... museum rag 4 ply mattes....dust seal, etc... |
