About Land of 10,000 Things

Land of 10,000 Things

Unique, one-of-a-kind drypoint etching prints.

The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth. The named is the mother of ten thousand things.
-Lao Tzu

I am interested in drypoint etching printmaking as a medium to use found images--in different colours, with added mixed media, overprinting, painting on them with watercolour, acrylic or India ink.

Although I make multiple prints from each plate, I rarely if ever use the same colour, combination of chine collé, and so on. Each one is a unique work.

I work from the Paddock Studios in Lewes, East Sussex and have exhibited in their Artwave exhibition.

All my prints are:
- A4 size (297mm x 210mm / 8.3" x 11.7")
- On heavyweight 300gsm, acid-free cartridge paper (Seawhite or Snowdon)
- Using high-quality Akua printing inks, professional India ink and fadeproof watercolour
- Sold unframed

Although they are made to a high standard, ideally they are hung out of direct sunlight.
