Executing a powerful drawing is where it begins. Many of the drawings are used as the design for a woodcut and transcribed onto a woodblock in the studio. Some woodcut designs are drawn and developed directly on the block. Don draws outside in front of his subject in three-hour sessions. The cataloging of Don Gorvett's drawings is ongoing. Please check back for updates.

Drypoint, an etching without acid, is a printmaking technique in which an image is drawn into a copper plate with a stylus. Once the drawing is finished, it is printed in the intaglio tradition. Another technique Don has used is direct photogravure.
