Illustration is made by combining drawing and graphic techniques where the picture is replicated on special plate using dry needle method and pressed on the paper using special graphic press. This kind of method is special in the sense that no two similar illustrations can be made since shading, line thickness and brightness will differ every time, allowing for each drawing to be unique.
