PRINTS HANDFINISHED BY THE ARTIST Prints hand finished and embellished by the artist, typically in editions of 50. In 1997 I was asked to paint, as well as draw, remarque's on the print. Test pieces were made on 638gsm Heavy Waterford Watercolour paper. The paper did not buckle or distort when worked upon. I let the image define what I would do and after a while I realised that I had two distinct approaches. With, for example, "Dragon at Dawn" or "Pathways" I worked with transparent paints. These additions are unique and to be discussed and agreed.
