“Nobska Light” by David Hunter
Limited Engagement September 1st – 4th, 2017
By Cindy Reed
What do Rembrandt and artist David Hunter have in common? Mastering the art of etchings! Rembrandt made over 300 etchings…each one brilliantly translating his remarkable use of light, air and space. The intrigue of etching original art continues today.
Hunter is demonstrating new etchings made on site at Seaside Art Gallery, September 1st – 4th, 2017. You’ll see original art created right before your eyes as the artist inks and hand-presses each beautiful piece with his own etched zinc plate!
Meet the Master Artist
Hunter is a master in creating high detail etched drawings. Ask him how he etches his free-hand drawing into the zinc plate. He’ll show you his techniques for highlighting and inking his etched plate…then hand-press it with his own equipment right there in the gallery. Each beautiful piece is transformed into an original work of art!
New Etching to be Unveiled
Every year, Hunter creates a new etching for this event. This year’s creation is a secret and will be unveiled in the gallery on September 1st. Only 100 of these gems will be issued. You’ll be the first to see them! During the show, Hunter will sign and dedicate your own limited edition etching of your choosing.
Hunter will also have a beautiful selection of his most sought-after etchings and artwork at the show.
