The Art:

John P. Morgan is a master printmaker. He works in Washington state and works with an old Paul Shniedewend Reliance hand press, after which he has named his print studio - Reliance. Morgan also enjoys working with an antique English "Furnival" lithograph proof press and a "Kember" etching press. His prints use two printing techniques: lithographic printing through which he achieves fine detail in drawing, and silk-screen printing through which he achieves rich subtle color tones - using as many as twelve successive transparent screens.
