Textural, Collage & Original Prints

Texture is the surface quality of an artwork. It can convey a variety of messages and emotions. Collage and other materials can be used to add texture.

Original prints are individual prints created by the hand of the artist, sometimes unique one-offs, sometimes in limited editions. Etchings, monoprints, linocuts, & silkscreen prints are all different types of original prints.
