	handprint : the topographical tradition
		Sandby is often called "the father of the English watercolor" because he made so many technical advances, taught so many talented students, and created so many splendid paintings that capture the uniquely English love of nature and work.
		These paintings display Sandby's enjoyment of dynamic human figures and his remarkable talent for suggesting the aural qualities of a place — the clatter of horses, the clang of a flsmith's hammer, the squeak of a waterpump, the echoing of steps on a stairway.
		Yet Sandby's efforts to bring emotional warmth and human interest to watercolor drawing, and his boundless energy as a technical innovator, Academy founder and generously supportive colleague to fellow artists, were the important founding acts by which English painters made watercolors into a geniunely national art form.

		Paul Sandby: The Iron Forge between Dolgelli and Barmouth in Merioneth Shire (36.8.30)
		Sandby was already an experienced watercolorist and etcher when he began tinkering with Jean-Baptiste Le Prince's recipe for applying tonal areas to etchings with resin powder.
		But, instead of distributing the powder dry, he dissolved it in "rectified spirits of wine" so that it could be brushed on an etching plate like an ink wash, a process for which he coined the term aquatint.

	WCBC: Paul Sandby — Career Portfolio
		Paul Sandby worked in many media: watercolour, gouache, and oils, but it was his aquatints that had a lasting influence on the development of British landscape art.
		Sandby exploits the ability of aquatint to show a variety of tones and contrasts and so captures the atmosphere of the castle at night.
		Sandby's aquatint process involved him painting on a liquid aquatint wash in varying thicknesses on to a metal plate to the design he wanted.

		Thomas Gainsborough recommended Paul Sandby to at least one patron who wanted views of his country estate as the only contemporary English landscape artist who painted 'real views from nature', as opposed to his own imaginary compositions.
		But in addition tho faithful topographical views, Sandby was also concerned with elevating the regard in which landscape was held at the Royal Academy, and painted many large imaginary views in bodycolour and watercolour, intended to hang framed alongside oils on the walls of the Academy and the houses of his patrons.
