"The artist is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of the tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers."

Augustus John, R.A.

Almost Finished

 I've worked this new mezzotint plate almost to the finish now. Just a few things to tidy up and some highlights to burnish to white and it will be ready to edition.



Inked plate on the hotplate ready for wiping.



Wiped plate on the press bed.
