More printing

Really pleased with the tests I have been doing...but it's a hard job trying to dry the prints flat.  The covered bricks I use have had a moonlight job to do keeping up the broken middle post of a bed.

So the prints are coming along nicely and the deadline is midweek next .....I am trying not to think about it and just get on with them.  It's not the end of the world if I miss it

Just trying out some shapes and colours.  I was going to put a digital chine colle on a couple of the prints  but printer ran out of ink so whilst eagerly awaiting the post I am working out other strategies just in case.



Sorry about image quality, I just don't have time to worry about exposure right now.  Really pleased with this lithograph feathery drawing.  The left side of this image will have an embossment on it ..yum


This looks quite good too.  The pale green is actually darker and I would lighten the deep red.  These are objects collected from the beach in Cromarty.


I think this orangey ochre looks quite good with the green grey. Back to the grindstone!

Lovely. I love the way that your embossed areas so conjure up sand after the tide has gone out. I also very much like your beach objects - are they going to be fixed to the prints?

Your bed sounds 'exciting'!

Thank you Olga...no the objects are not going to fixed I was just trying to get and idea of shape, scale and colour.
