Mountain etching No.4: Grande Casse, Vanoise Massif, France.

I haven't been to the French Alps so far, neither for hiking nor skiing. These regions tempt me to change that. The high contrast made the Grande Casse a perfect motif.

Mountain etching No.3: Hoher Ifen, Austria. This is where i went to hike with my parents one easter vacation in late spring, only to find the valleys covered in snow. In autumn, we went again but that time around to learn alpine skiing, the beginning of a love for mountains. #drypoint #printmaking

Mountain etching No.2: Italy, Sella Ronda One of my favourite areas in the Alps. Every corner offers new and interesting views. Not only of impressive peaks but the valleys in between as well.

Blue skies over Matterhorn - After many failed (yet fun!) attempts at chine colle printing, this print surprised even myself when i pulled it, because i instantly loved it. #drypoint #drypointprint #drypointetching #matterhorn #mountainart #chinecolle #printmaking #PrintmakingArt #printmaker

From inking to impression
The Matterhorn is one of my favourite mountains. Not because I some breathtaking adventure or anything like that but because it just. looks. so. pretty!
It's a drypoint etching on a renalon Plate, printed with the 3D-printed "Open Press Project" Postcard press.
