I’ve signed up for the 20:20 print exchange at Hot Bed. I missed lasts years exchange because I left it all until the last minute and the collagraph printing plate fell apart after eight prints.
This year I’m
starting earlier and I think I’ll use a more robust plate. I’ve been etching.
A deep bite
on top of a failed plate from a few months ago. I wish I could reproduce that
texture.
An attempt
at etching zinc without an aquatint. I wanted a deep bite bit with not much
tone so I could try viscosity etching.
The plate
didn’t behave as I expected and the etch wasn’t deep enough.
I
reproduced the composition on aluminium so I can play with it more.
I’m going to
try colour inking on this plate and I think I might try another plate developed
from this composition incorporating text.
