About me
This site is under continuous elaboration. One can find on it not only various technics, like etching, woodcut, and different printing technics, but as well different formats of graphic. Artists’ books, art graphics and ex libris are some of the various formats I am working with. Photography, video and digital formats are included in my processing methods.
