Author Description

An overview of the work of one distinguished artist in a specialized field: printmaking. Anne Moore's style and voice is very much her own, her work an evolution of exploration and technique-first under masters in the craft, then set on her own path of discovery. For that's what printmaking is: Only in part "intentionality," much of it rather the result of how the elements react, inked plates subjected to the pressure of a hand press on fine paper. Anne Moore is a master, her work sought after by peers in her field. Art Under Pressure is a unique collection of her work. Also included is an explanation in of the craft, a definition of terms, and an abbreviated step-by-step of how she does it. Part retrospective, part catalog, the book is a useful tool for others in the field, and a treasure for any lover of art, intrigue and beauty.
