Peter Garnick has been a photographer for over 50 years. In 2014 he discovered the work of Master Photogravurist Silvi Glattauer and never looked back. Peter's initial photogravures drew on his bank of photographic imagery.
Since 2014, Peter has evolved from Photogravure, to Collagraphy, to Metal Plate Etching, and currently to Drypoint Acrylic Plate Etching. Over this period, his imagery has moved from the photographic to the abstract.
