Making 'Eating out in Paddington'

Paddington is a great part of Sydney to visit. It's got lots of interesting architecture and lots going on. The Eat Thai restaurant on Glenmore Street looks like a cool place to eat. Maybe if I see this print I'll be able to afford it!


I made the image using drypoint engraving for some of the linework and carborundum gel for the tones. I'm only starting out on my learning curve with this technique and so I had quite a bit of additional painting to do before printing. I'm pretty chuffed with the result, mainly due to the textures contributed by the grittiness of the carborundum.


This print is now available in my shop.
