As a practitioner of the art of the Hand-Made Print it is vital to me that all B&W photographic printmaking tasks be performed manually in order to satisfy my desire to reveal the "hand of the artist" in the creative process. By eliminating reliance on computer programs and monitor calibration or printer settings, I am making a commitment to continue employing the genuine tools and authentic materials used for true light-sensitive photography in a way that represents the purist traditions of the medium. Using special photographic oils on the print surface connects me with the work in an organic way and this compels me to continue working with the alchemic formulas and processes needed to create this unique artwork. By separately hand-processing and then individually hand-painting each image, I intend that the "eye of the artist" will be recognized and ultimately identified as my personal style.
