APPARENTLY WITH NO SURPRISE

Letterpress, collagraphs with chine collé, screen printing, 15 x 11.5 inches, (38 x 29.25 cm) on 250 gm deckle edge rag paper. Quarter case binding with Kraftex leather and paper-wrapped boards. The total edition of the collagraphs is 12, with nine having been bound into books and the remaining ones as loose-leaf edition. Signed and numbered.

My artist books, broadsides, and loose-leaf editions are published in very small numbers, as low as five. All are hand-printed and hand-bound (in the case of books) by me, all are signed and numbered. While I am trying to be perfect, I am human, not a machine. Some variations in the editioned work are to be expected due to the processes, materials, and the artist’s change of mind. It is exactly what makes the work collectible: each piece is an original work of art. The pieces employ printmaking like original etchings, woodcuts, carborundum, screen prints, monotype, monoprint, and letterpress. Nothing is produced using digital reproduction methods.
