JORINGEL'S DREAM (2009)

Mezzotint 175x220 mm, from an edition of 10

Literally based on the Grimm's Fairy tale Jorinda and Joringel, a tale of two lovers who are separated after a witch turns Jorinda into a Nightengale - very abbreviated version sorry - for a better description you can read it here:

This print depicts the dream Joringel has that spurs him on to find his lost love....

Labels: etchings, mezzotint

Hello, I am a print artist based in New Zealand. I prefer to work in Mezzotint, a time consuming but highly rewarding process. My work is largely influenced by folklore and illustrated books from my childhood. My late grandmother was also an inspirational figure as she told me fairytales that have remained deep in my psyche and instigated a need to vocalise with imagery issues important to me. These images characterise some of the myriad emotions that make us human.
