Yes you are righ...Hi Janet, thanks for the comment. Yes you are right that the print is much less delicate than the drawing. This was my first soft ground, which I did in my last few hours in the print studio, so I didn't have an opportunity to experiment further. What you see here is the result of probably 5 minutes too long in the acid bath. It will take me a bit more tinkering time to figure out what effects I can get with different exposures. I also want to see what kind of line I can get if I use a ballpoint pen rather than a pencil to press lines into the ground. That is what excites me about printmaking, there are so many experiments to do, each will lead to a discovery of some kind, and will increase my understanding of the process.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798012942300385584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1168968521238439857.post-36907565778004853272013-11-19T20:02:29.604-08:002013-11-19T20:02:29.604-08:00The print came out higher contrast than the origin...The print came out higher contrast than the original drawing.

Graydon Parrish will eventually publish something along the lines of "how to" mix various hues at various levels of value and chroma, I believe he is working on that project now. What I can tell you is that an orange (known in Munsell as a Yelow Red) would not be best mixed with black in a value string, though white might be useful to raise value, at a cost to chroma. Sometimes to increase chroma it is best to look for a brand of cad orange that already has very high chroma. Darker values of orange can be obtained by use of earth pigments like burnt sienna, raw umber or burnt umber.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798012942300385584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1168968521238439857.post-59138968399089624842012-08-24T08:09:58.711-07:002012-08-24T08:09:58.711-07:00hi could you tell me if you noticed any patterns i...hi could you tell me if you noticed any patterns in what colors you used to mix color strings? for instance, if you were doing a particular orange would you just use white to lighten and black to darken or were other colors chosen. can you tell us the colors you used to mix the scales at the various color points?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1168968521238439857.post-85848007461988760522012-07-31T16:04:37.421-07:002012-07-31T16:04:37.421-07:00Thanks Karen and Jim for your encouraging words.
