    • Printmaking Process
The printmaking process that I use is called intaglio, drypoint. I take a "plate" that is made from plastic and I draw on it with a variety of sharp tools that create incision lines and also create a burr. When I ink my plate, the ink gets stuck in the lines and burrs. I wipe off the excess ink and then I make my print using either a hand roller or a traditional printmaking press. I work in very small editions (10 total prints are made from the same plate) due to the fact that the burr is delicate and is eventually crushed in the process.

I employ materials such as charcoal and watercolor over my hand pulled drypoint etchings to achieve an image that is both refined and exposed resulting in a "mono print".
