I had the opportunity to study printmaking about 30 years ago, having previously specialised in painting at art school in the early 70s. The practice of etching, inking, scratching, burnishing steel, layering colours and proofing make each print hard won but worthwhile

In recent years, my prints have transitioned to the most simple forms, leaving behind the figuration of my earlier work. Purely abstract, they are investigations of colour and spatial relationships, through the use of geometrical forms, shape and texture.
