Printing
BACK IN THE STUDIO AGAIN
I should say a studio rather as mine is still unusable as a place of print – the papers absorb too much ambient moisture. However i went up to Julia Bartons‘ studio to use her press. When i move studio’s hopefully i will invest in a relief press – having just done a day I have discovered just how versatile the press is and how delicate the prints can be. Here are a couple of early efforts.
I’d never just picked up some vegetation and printed it – i was on a roll
and another
and then i went for something to contrast – some man made mylon rope – i was really surprised by how well this took considering how unabsorbant nylon can be.
And as an extra you get a bit of embossing thrown in for free. Result. Now I just need some more time to play and print.
