Description
Hand printed on cotton rag paper, Niche is a photo etching showing exuberant plant life bursting between curb-stones at the side of the road. The mono print element is the actual plant which is inked up separately each time & carefully positioned on the etching plate for each print with the aid of tweezers. Each print is hand-pulled by me. This particular print is number 6 of a limited edition of 12. The 7cm x 7cm plate is inked with quality oil based intaglio & relief inks & printed with an etching press onto a 24cm x 18cm piece of quality Somerset cotton-rag-paper. The print is signed, titled & numbered in pencil. It is also embossed with a small version of my workshop's logo. The embosser is also made by myself. The last photograph is of another print from the edition in a frame. This item is sold unframed. This artwork was conceived & created solely as an original fine art print. Unlike a gicleé print or any other computer print out, none of my prints are reproductions of a pre-existing painting or drawing. To see more prints in this range see this shop section - Photo etching = http://www.etsy.com/shop/LynnBaileyPrintmaker?section_id=10142763 & to see more of my artwork celebrating weeds/wild flowers see here - https://www.etsy.com/shop/LynnBaileyPrintmaker/search?search_query=weeds & don't forget to click on ADD TO CART before you go anywhere else ;-) I like to use top quality heavy weight paper (this one is Sommerset 100% cotton, Velvet, 300gm) so It is best not to roll up prints for posting, especially when the printing process results in a fair amount of embossing. I will therefore only ship my prints flat & protected with card. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Fine Art Photo Etching Mono Print. Roadside Plant.
