These unique prints (U/P) are inspired by my move from Cornwall to the Kent coast, at Walmer, UK.
I carry a sense of place; bringing memory of moorland life, its light and dark skies, landscape, streams, on this return journey, to where I see the French coast, on most days, once again. I have used carborundum to make the studies. The plate is inked up, put through an etching press, to make the strong black and whites and gradually, subtle light and darks. I am attracted to the Carborundum technique, invented in the 1930’s – it holds a resonance for me in the arts and poetry pamphlet-making.
