Did you know?

All the works in this website are ORIGINAL PRINTS - That is to say they are "pulled" from plates that form the images.

Varied Edition
, V.E. = As each print is pulled the artist chooses to vary them with colour, line, paper etc.

Artist Proof, A.P.= Prints pulled before the limited edition is pulled in order that the artist can perfect the printing method and/or plate construction - Can be of high quality but may vary from the limited edition.

Limited Edition
- A number of prints that are pulled from a plate before the plate is destroyed. Generally for ORIGINAL PRINTS, a common number of prints pulled is 25 or 50, as the plate breaks down as it is being used, by rolling or the press pressure. Therefore the preferred prints are the earlier ones, e.g. 1/25 to 25/25, though all the prints are considered of high value as the printer will cut the number to be sure the all meet the artists high standards. If there is only a very low number of prints, e.g. 5 or 10, all prints are considered of equal quality.
