Artist Statement:
I have been involved in the
exploration of printmaking
without the use of mechanical
press for the past 10 years.
This exploration has involved
the experimentation of
materials and techniques used
and the use of body weight to
create the printed image.
In short, my prints are
created by the use of hand
pressure and foot pressure. I
literally walk on my prints to
obtain the images. To obtain
different markings within my
prints I use different soled
shoes.
All of my prints are very
limited editions, but each
print is treated as an
individual identity and
therefore no two prints from
the same edition are ever the
same.
In fact a great deal of care
is taken to give each print an
individual identity.
Subjects used are always drawn
from experiences of life,
nature and family. I respond
to the world around me,
firstly recording what I see
as studies and then by playing
with the images I record, by
the use of rotations (in the
case of plants)
Other designs are produced by
creating comical situations
that reflect social comments
through the use of birds as
subjects....
