Hello & welcome to A Pressing Issue! I hope you find my art pleasing to the eye & you'll enjoy owning one of my prints or paintings as much as I enjoyed creating it.All prints are handmade, meaning each print for that series is from 1 copperplate. The paper is cut to size, rinsed free of starches/sizing..the plate is wiped clean & heated, then ink applied, then rewiped of excess ink. The plate & paper are laid on the press bed covered with felt blankets & "handpulled" thru the press. So...no print is ever the same, more so every print is an original in every way. I normally run a series of 1-50 prints & then retire the plate. I also do custom work such as a painting of your own home,special place, etc..as well as cards made to fit whatever occasion or idea you might like. Feel free to email me with whatever "picture" you may want put to paper. Thanks for dropping by & please come back often! Jim Darcy More »
