Here's two postcards created from the same subject using different proofs. The challenge here was to try and achieve different effects through cropping and collage. I liked the idea of adding text to the cards as part of the design.
The smell of the inks,the energy involved in working the plate, the feel of the paper and of course the magic of the press all play a role in printmakings allure. There are always new challenges to be met, problems to be solved and unlimited possibilities. At the end of a printing session, it is always magical to find out what lies "beneath the blankets".
