Fall Art Tour Fish

I hand colored a print of the plate I was working on during the Fall Art Tour...

4"x6" , printed on Rives BFK

Because I can't leave well enough alone
there are no two plates which are the same....
I think the official term for this is "Edition Variation #2"...
$80.00
yes, there is a #1....

The Religionator in the Garden

...or part of the Garden...
it's a very large Garden....

2.5"x3.5"...printed from scrap aluminum flashing

The Fall Art Tour is October 17-18-19....I am number "24".

Not Etching

Collagraphs.
5x7 collagraph, printed on RivesBFK

5x7 printed on Rives Lightweight

I'll demonstrate what I'm doing here at the FallArtTour.

Collagraphy Experiments--two more

I was messing with the resists...
the top one was barely tacky...
the bottom one was absolutely dry.

(two 3.25"x5" aluminum flashing plates)

I wasn't so careful in putting the resist coatings on,

and left very slight ridges from the edges of the brush...

hardly visable when they dried, but they actually PRINT!

geez.....

ok, so I learned something else.

Collagraph for Auction

I'm still working with the collagraph idea from the book INTAGLIO....
donating this one to 4PeteSake along with a couple woodprints.

The Soil of the Red Planet is Toxic
3.25x5" aluminum flashing

First Collagraph Print

I need something that gives more immediate results than these metal poundings I've been doing.
Painting on the "shoe" piece is good....
the watercolors are good...
but, I'm needing to draw INTO something.
Etching would be perfect...wouldn't be wandering far from this metal thing I've got....
but I'm really not set up to etch plates....
so, using acrylic resists, and my trusty needle I started experimenting....and it feels good.
