  • The shapes and textures of wild grasses fascinate me

  • This is a metal etching print that used both a hard ground and a soft ground process. It was first worked with a hard ground allowing for many of the compositional areas and figure outline to be created. The soft ground textures where then added. Carpet, lace, my fingertip, and a dreaded lock of (my) hair was used to expose these textures within the copper plate. After this, I did another hard ground layer to create many delicate and more refined details that were needed to finish up the work. Hope you enjoy the print, and the timeless subject of the farmer and his dog “resting in peace” against the hay pile after the harvest.

  • This is a “Copper Plate” Etching… ( 300mm x 300mm )This is now the second edition and now is complete. The plate was aquatinted and this is the final result, no photoshop or enhancing made. The process of etching into copper and aquatinting is a long process. In the first edition the lines are engraved and the plate printed. In the second edition the plate is aqautinted in the acid four or five times depending how many tones you want. This came out better then expected. This composition is in collaboration with Barssel whom takes these wonderful nude photographs and lets me use them in my art…his link is Barssel / Thank you so much for your help with my art this year. I will be sending you this print when it is complete….well thats if you want one. Also I am happy to send you any print if your nude is in the art work. Send me your address and I will mail you an original print. At the moment I am also drawing this image on an A1 paper for drawing class..it will look very different to this one. Thanks so much….BillyLee Ruban Jane !

  • 2009 / 25×100 cm / etching, aquatint & linocut on Stonehenge, BFK Rives & Somerset papers with chine colle / variant edition of 3 This work is inspired by convict artist, William Gould’s Sketchbook of Fishes in Macquarie Harbour (c. 1832). Gould was transported to Van Dieman’s Land in 1827 for stealing. His original works were done in watercolours whilst serving a sentence at Macquarie Harbour on Tasmania’s rugged west coast. I decided to pay homage to Gould whilst reading Richard Flanagan’s fictional account of Gould’s life in his novel Gould’s Book of Fish, during my recent residency at the Frans Masereel Centre in Belgium. I feel there is a sense of conclusion in Gould being transported to the “New World” and creating his works, while I was “transported” back to the “Old World” where I made reproductions of his works. The observant viewer may notice hints of architectural reflections in the water segments of my prints, which are typical of the type of warehouses that line the canals of Holland and Belgium. These convey a sense of feeling like a “fish out of water”, something I experienced whilst undertaking my residency and which I imagine Gould must have felt in his strange new world.

  • Zinc etching / Aquatint (I am getting so much better at aquatint, yeh!!) / Viscosity printing – two colours: blue with yellow on top / BFK Rives 280gsm – such a good solid reliable paper Did this one just for practice at aquatint.
