ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Who can resist when it is the year of the Rabbit? The Chinese Zodiac has several animals that are just so interesting to make, one of my favorites is the Rabbit. This monoprint started life as a collagraph printed in oilbased ink, when dry, I added the fur in colored pencil, several layers of it, see thumbnail, and then worked on the eye to get just the expression I wanted. I added blue water color to the back ground to give it depth, and the finished result looks more like a painting than a print. It is printed "al sangre", that is, right up to the edge. The monoprint/mixed media print, measures 39 cm x 39 cm ( 15" x 15" ) and is signed on the front. I have printed it on 300 g Hahnemuehle paper, a lovely best quality printmaking paper. I ship from my studio in Denmark, with many years experience in packing my art so it arrives safely. Thanks for looking, Mariann

Almost 20 years a full time printmaker and I am as much in love as the day I pulled my first print! My presses have moved with me, from Borneo to Singapore, from Singapore to Spain, and now on to Denmark, where I have set up my studio and gallery. I am self taught, a book, a way to thick copper plate and a gallon drum of nitric acid, making every mistake you could, and learning, learning as I went along. I started with etchings and added linocut when we moved to Singapore. Here I also taught printmaking at Singapore Tyler Print Institue, picking up and learning from the master printmakers there. I never want to be too "old" to learn, to challenge myself, to do better! My inspiration comes from a variety of sources, I have no single line of work, but prefer to make images as they come into my head, through books, I love to read, through radio, music and a huge part, from my daily dogwalks, that not only provide inspiration from nature but also moments of contemplation that results in many of my prints! All my prints are printed on best quality printmaking papers (favorites are Magnani, Fabriano, and Hahnemuelhe) with Charbonnel etching inks.
