Photogravure print of a Ranunculus bud, on Somerset Satin 100% cotton rag paper. Somerset Velvet 100% cotton rag paper. Somerset paper is made to high archival standards. The paper’s surface has a gentle texture, and offers durability and long life to finished editions of work.
This print is made in a similar way to a traditional etching, where a plate is created from a photographic negative, inked by hand, and put through the press.
Image size approx 5x5 inches. Paper size approx 10x10 inches
This print is available via the Artist Support Pledge, where once I have sold ASP prints to a value of £1100 I pledge to buy the work of another artist or artists for £220.

Cyanotype print of Ranunculus flower. Size approx 7.5 x 5 inches
I make each cyanotype print by hand coating cotton rag paper with a specially mixed light sensitive solution in very dim lighting. I then let it dry overnight. I expose it under a large negative and a piece of glass, usually the sun. I then rinse the paper in water and the blue image emerges.
Each print is slightly different due to the brushstrokes and other variations in the handmade process.
This print is signed and dated on the back.
