New Project in Progress:
Working progress from Jennifer !
pic 1 - drawing into the blackened plate (the waxed surface of the metal plate is made black by burning it in candle flame)
pic 2 - adding Bitumin paint to the plate where I don’t want the acid dip to eat at the metal
pic 3 - the plate about 45 minutes later (it has been sitting in a liquid that eats the metal thus making the lines where it has been exposed)
pic 4 - a close up. The final print is yet to come!
pic 5 - squeezed this in to show a happy mistake - this is Foss the Cat (Lear’s sidekick) that I wanted to make a postcard from. I used the Dry Point method for this but didn’t dig deep enough so it came out very light… but looks quite fluffy! Quite nice to see the mistakes sometimes..
Sample, Tales From A Peagreen Boat, 2012.
Coming Up!
More plate etching.
Four hours later… Is there any visible progress?! Seriously questioning my choice to print, but I do love it…
