As my manual movements became more restricted due to the ever increasing effect of the M.S. so the scale of my work became much more reduced. It was at this time that printmaking assumed a much more positive place in my working practice.
I gradually developed a very personal use of the traditional sugar-lift technique. My watercolours had always been built up in a wet-into-wet method allowing random bleeding at the edge of forms and so I experimented with this approach in my use of sugar-lift.
