Etchings, Drawings & Book Arts

For the bibliophile and binder, there are many folios with text and books available in full leather bindings with slipcases, as well as sheets—unbound and available for purchase. Bind them yourself and do better.

There are additional pages containing some of my thoughts on the making of art, which may help you enter my vision and lead to a greater appreciation of what has gone into the making of this body of artwork. The first essay is one on the technical aspects of making an etching, something about which even most curators know little.

There is another essay on fishing and why I bother, and another on primitive art, and so it goes. These essays are likely to expand if I see that there is interest from readers.

Welcome, and now enter my world.
