David Smith ARE

David Smith is a Hawaii-born artist working almost exclusively in stone lithography and photographic plate etching for the past 27 years. Smith’s own prints are created by laboriously hand printing one image, one layer upon another, each transparent colour interacting with the previous to give a visual sense of harmony that is so intrinsic to the art of printmaking. But really this is just “technical muscle flexing” as the ultimate goal is to create images with a sense of narrative and at best, magic!
