"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 Complete

Over the last few days I've brought the plate almost to completion. The third and fourth States are shown below. I'm still not happy that the foreground rocks are entirely convincing and still need some work on them. The fourth state is printed with Indigo Ink, warmed up on the sunlit side of the gorge with a touch of Burnt Sienna, experimenting with how the final edition will be printed.
