BILL GOLDSTON: Every day I wake up and I try to think if I was 25 years old and I was just starting my printing business, what would I do today? And that’s the way I approach every day in the studio. I can’t let myself be wed to old established techniques because when I was 25 years old, I hated that.
On the other side of the coin, ULAE does have a tradition and I’m not about to violate that. I just want to expand it, that’s all.
The ideas are always what has been important. And not the puttering around in the medium. And whether it’s digital printing. Whether it’s etching, whether it’s dry point, whether it’s litho, it doesn’t matter. Your idea has to have validity and importance and if that’s the case, anything you make it in will be interesting.
