This is a hybrid print made up of a collagraph base layer and handcut copperplate, aquatint etching.

A flock of rooks taking off

All my work starts with drawing.

I aim to capture the movement and energy of the birds.

The backgrounds are created using recycled bits of card or packaging and loose gestural marks to convey an atmosphere of a familiar rural scene.

Each print takes time to create and is not a process one can rush.
