"Archer on the Slopes."
2001 Relief
Etching.
39cm x 39cm
Paper: Hahnemule
This print has been used to illustrate the
cover of the self titled debut album by Songs
of Green Pheasant.
It was released on CD on the 12th September 2005 on Fat
Cat Records.
As part of the
narrative: This print is composed
of many small pictures, each depicting a scene from the narrative.
They are all etched into a single piece of copper.
Notes on the print: After testing the
relief etching technique
out with three small prints I embarked on this much larger
one. The process of coming up with the images gave me lots
of ideas for the series. The plate is
first printed from its reverse in a sepia tone and then the
front of the plate is printed in black over the top of that.
