Printmaking

What technique do you use for making the prints?
All prints are created by woodcut or wood engraving, old relief printmaking techniques. An image is carved into the surface of a block of wood with various gouges, leaving the printing parts level with the surface while removing the non-printing parts. The surface is covered with ink using a roller and the image is manually printed on paper using a printing press. Each print may differ in small details and is considered to be an original piece of art (unlike digital reproductions). An edition of prints is usually strictly limited in quantity. For my prints, I use only high-quality materials, professional oil-based inks and archival quality papers.

Editioning

What do the numbers below the image mean?
Each print within the limited edition bears two numbers in the bottom left corner under the image (e.g. 3/50), where the first number is the number assigned to the impression and the second number is the size of the edition. In addition, several impressions marked A/P (Artist’s Proof), that are not intended for sale, can be made.
