Crack 2019 - etching and digital prints

From 20th to 23rd June I was @ Crack with my prints.
I brought some prints taken from 'Il minipimer della nonna', some etchings, softground and woodcut prints too.
Thanks to all the friends who came and say 'hi' and everyone who bought and appreciate my work.

I love delicacy of calcareous stones.

last Monday I was at Stamperia d'arte Busato working all day. Signing and numbering prints, watercolouring litographies, and printing with Valerio.

Stamperia d'arte Busato in Vicenza is really a wonderful place.
it smells old paper and ink and it is full of great artists' work: etchings and litographies are everywhere and you can walk among different printing presses and heavy litography stones.
I am grateful that Giancarlo let me try litography.
It has been such a great experience!
Here you are some steps.
I also printed some of my etchings - thanks to Valerio, such a great and experienced printer!
