Storm front




      A day spent printing in the company of photographer Nick Fallowfield-Cooper from Fallon's Angler and then a little successful pike fishing at the end of the day, but more on that later.
      The print that you see above is an experimental print in the sense that I am using different inks and mixes, making each printing fast drying, overprinted and layered on top of different colours. The rapid drying allows a build-up of textures and different finishes so that the finished print is not simply a sequence of flat colours. All-in-all I am happy that the experiment and the effects have worked, now I can't wait to use the technique on some larger prints.
      'Storm front' is printed in seven colours on 300gsm Somerset Cream Textured and the image area is 150mm x 150mm.

    1. Thanks Piscator, the skies do dominate down here and that's the route I'll try to follow on this set of six or so prints. The print is only six inches x six too! Thank you. John
