Artwork description:

The Very Fringes of the Day is of the moment when the sun sets behind the trees of my favourite spot in the Yorkshire Dales.

This is one of two polyester litho plates from which a very limited edition was printed, and no more are being produced from this image.

Once a print run is finished the plate itself is a reversed image of the prints. It often has marks and textures resulting from the printmaking process, which I particularly like as it adds to the depth of the image. I have included an image of the two plates being inked up.

Polyester litho is a thin paper-like plate with a coating on one side that resembles a stone surface and which can be printed from using relief ink.

This work comes framed in a dark blue frame. Please note that the image itself is 20x20cm.

Materials used:

Oil based relief ink & paper
