Etching is an important part of his practice. It includes a series produced in response to – and directly in front of – Old Master paintings, revealing the artist's strong sense of artistic tradition, often including different versions of a single painting by artists including Poussin, Titian, Rubens and Rembrandt, reworked in his own individualistic, expressionistic and linear style.
