Statement

On the surface my etchings are representational. The content is chiefly urban and/or 
figurative, and they aim to catch the texture of the everyday world - places, times, 
effects of light and weather. On the other hand, I am very concerned with the abstract 
geometries which remain visible within, or arise from, the world of appearances. The 
main influences on my etching have been the etchings of Rembrandt, and modern 
Dutch and Scandinavian printmakers.
