This form documents the number of runs, colours and procedures that I used when creating this particular image.2016 American horror novel by John Langan The Fisherman Purchase includes a copy of the Canadian Print Documentation Form filled out by me while creating this particular work of art. I've always found this to be the most interesting and exciting aspect of creating original works of art in printmaking. ![]() Printmaking is generally a time consuming process but each printmaking medium has unique visual characteristics that are not found in any other medium. They also impart interesting colour effects to the image. In many instances I destroy the image as I create it because I use a Reduction Process in order to remove parts of the image before I print the next colour. Colour blends are a convenient way to print multiple colours during a single printing. Each colour is mixed and printed by hand, and each colour requires a separate printing. ![]() The image is then proofed in black before moving into colour. Before printing can occur, the drawing materials need to be replaced with lithographic ink, and a "second etch" is applied. Once the drawing is complete and the washes are fully dried (overnight), the image is "etched" and allowed to sit overnight a second time. I often incorporate either water or solvent washes made from tusche paste to create certain "wash" effects. I draw directly on the stone or plate using a range of grease based Lithographic Crayons (#5 - #1). This is done on either a silky smooth, perfectly level lithographic stone (limestone), or an aluminium plate. They can have up to 25 colours and/or colour blends per image. Each aspect of the image requires a separate drawing. My Editions are very small with 2 to 10 prints per Edition. The majority of my lithographs are multiple colour images. Method: I print all my own work using either a direct pressure lithographic press or an etching press. This is an original work of art created within the printmaking medium of Stone Lithography.

He is surrounded by either Saskatoon Berries or Blue Berries. This is my brother Barry sitting on the front porch of my aunt's house in Saskatchewan, Canada.
