The plate inked up prior to wiping back before printing.
During the melancholic rain and more rain yesterday, Saturday 14/8/2015, I took 4 more prints ( 1 above ) from one of my etched aluminium plates – ‘Oak Tree at Station 15’ – an oak tree in Northumberland that is on a piece of land that takes you on a journey around all human emotions and history, from extreme violence to reconciliation.
The rain helped the process.
I’m going to make a lino block of the same tree with the night sky.
