I have been working hard trying to work out ideas for this next collaborative book and I am resolving more of what NOT to do that what needs to be done. Maybe in a strange way that is bringing me closer to some sort of resolution - though I can't see it yet!
Very happy with a background plate I am using for this book - not all my pages but probably about half of them with have this print base. The marking is quite serendipitous and scrumptious. I found these on the back of one of my early prints and have been waiting for the right moment to use it in a meaningful way. Think it will add to this book - certainly I like the look of the eggs printed over the plate marks.
Was planning on a different day tomorrow but have decided to stay put in the studio and try and get some momentum happening with the magpies.
S - Well I think they are looking delicious. B
ReplyDeleteThanks Barry - I am afraid it is only 'it' and not 'they' at present and one page does not a book make ....... hope by the end of this week to have more pages!
Deletelooking pretty amazing Susan…big wow from here!
ReplyDeletemmmmm thanks Fiona. Am tempted to just do a series on eggs but as I set myself this task, I want to give it a go : -)
DeleteI love the subtle spatters and marks... very lovely
ReplyDeleteThey are delicious aren't they Donna -wish I could take credit. I will certainly be playing around with page borders to try and create similar effects. Am thinking I will use the background plate on a number of my pages.
