Printmaking

So, after a little hiatus from 'blogging', I have decided to write a new post to show what work I have been focusing on in recent times.

Over the last few years, I have been enjoying experimenting with cyanotype, screen printing and relief printmaking.

This weekend I have been using watercolour and Khadi paper as a background, and then printing over the top using my new copper ink, which I really love.

During lockdown, I have been following the Handprinted blog, which has been giving me lots of inspiration to get printing again.

I shall continue to post my endeavours here..

Encaustic Wax

Well, this was experiment number one with using Encaustic wax and an iron.  I really liked the effect, so (of course) I had to do a few more...

This was a landscape image I had a go with

Flowers, in a rather abstract way

Foliage, in the landscape

I must say, I am very pleased with the results and the experimenting will go on...

Until next time,

Marie :)
