My work is representational and naturalistic. I go for a walk with a sketchbook and make drawings of anything that interests me. Then back home in the studio I use the sketches to try and make the best print that I possiby can.
"The artist is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of the tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers."Augustus John, R.A.

Progress
Difficult to get the camera angle right, I've done more work on the left hand fall than appears from these images. All the white areas are now roughed out although they need much more scraping and then burnishing so that they will print as white. With the lightest and the black areas worked out I can now work through the greys from these extremes. The plate size for this is 200mm x 300mm.
