We loved the results and decided to experiment further with this and so the next day with guidance from the master of Gum Arabic Justin Sanders we both produced some amazing prints for our first trial of the process. Sometimes referred to as paper lithography, this method of printmaking uses photocopies saturated with gum arabic. The ink of the photocopy attracts the ink on the roller and can then be printed. Four Colour Seperations involves inking up the CMYK layers of an image separately then overlaying them.<br /><br />We will be entering these images to the mini print exhibition in York.<br /><br />Carborundum Print<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp6Ra2QeI/AAAAAAAAAF8/-1AjwYsV-aY/s1600-h/han.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 238px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp6Ra2QeI/AAAAAAAAAF8/-1AjwYsV-aY/s320/han.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401761990395183586" /></a> <br /><br />Gum Arabic Four Colour Separation <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp6AgHs-I/AAAAAAAAAF0/UhYni1zG6SI/s1600-h/coral2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 211px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp6AgHs-I/AAAAAAAAAF0/UhYni1zG6SI/s320/coral2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401761985853895650" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp52RJKFI/AAAAAAAAAFs/vn9VHQtVxy4/s1600-h/coral1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 208px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp52RJKFI/AAAAAAAAAFs/vn9VHQtVxy4/s320/coral1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401761983106721874" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp5iFIteI/AAAAAAAAAFk/2wRN3QeyGSM/s1600-h/lake.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 221px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Svbp5iFIteI/AAAAAAAAAFk/2wRN3QeyGSM/s320/lake.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401761977687651810" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/SvbrBqOoFHI/AAAAAAAAAGE/8KrIWDTavM0/s1600-h/beach.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 217px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/SvbrBqOoFHI/AAAAAAAAAGE/8KrIWDTavM0/s320/beach.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401763216825521266" /></a>Emma Jane Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16465250983279040901noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422679700597996970.post-22541230192254211172009-11-02T08:41:00.001-08:002009-11-02T08:42:03.316-08:00Open Skill Swap: Carborundum<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_MPeLcpT-ObY/SutwGCUASMI/AAAAAAAAABI/uwKuerq_k50/s1600-h/DSCN3047.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 223px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_MPeLcpT-ObY/SutwGCUASMI/AAAAAAAAABI/uwKuerq_k50/s320/DSCN3047.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398531827335973058" /></a><br /><br />From Emma to Hannah to North West Printmakers<br /><br />On Thursday we offered the first of hopefully many skill swapping sessions to Printmakers in the North West.

A great technique that i will be using and developing more in the future. A four colour split of CMYK can be produced which gives fantastic results.<br /><br />Another way of using the Gum Arabic is to draw an image with crayon and similar to the photocopy it is drawn to the dark areas.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8GxrdxDzI/AAAAAAAAAD0/FP3EnR1mQo0/s1600-h/gum2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 229px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8GxrdxDzI/AAAAAAAAAD0/FP3EnR1mQo0/s320/gum2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399541928791445298" /></a>Emma Jane Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16465250983279040901noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422679700597996970.post-3149924778929075272009-11-02T07:48:00.000-08:002009-11-02T08:11:32.071-08:00Skill Swap: Copper SulphateOur collaborating began with skill swapping sessions between the two of us to widen our knowledge of Printmaking techniques.<br /><br />Our first skill swap was from Hannah to Emma in Etching with Copper Sulphate:<br /><br />Hannah clearly taught the method of the safer etching process and how to apply the various grounds<br /><br />Covering Soft and Hard Resist using Graphic Chemical Water Based Block Printing Ink.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8Ee1-CPwI/AAAAAAAAADc/IunGU-Ntv8k/s1600-h/copper.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 193px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8Ee1-CPwI/AAAAAAAAADc/IunGU-Ntv8k/s320/copper.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399539406170373890" /></a><br /><br />Here we have experimented with different tools including crayon, needles, pens to compare results. Using this as a hard ground was easier to see what you where drawing onto however as a soft ground it gave good faint lines.<br /><br /><br />Using Hard Resist with Lascaux. here we scrapped into the resist with a needle. The copper sulphate bit these lines well however the hard resist made it difficult to see where to draw into.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8EfKEMCII/AAAAAAAAADk/9pxtXNtp0gE/s1600-h/copper2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 292px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8EfKEMCII/AAAAAAAAADk/9pxtXNtp0gE/s320/copper2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399539411564890242" /></a><br /><br />Here we used The Bluecoats answer to aquatint spraying acrylic resist with the use of an airbrush and compressor. Drawing on top of the aquatint with various materials including crayons, lard, Lascaux hard ground. Testing the copper sulphate to see how long to leave the plate etching for the tone we wanted. this plate was etched for around 10minutes.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8EUkUpzfI/AAAAAAAAADU/-Wposrmgftg/s1600-h/copper3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 198px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3hpyrTWTgR8/Su8EUkUpzfI/AAAAAAAAADU/-Wposrmgftg/s320/copper3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399539229634711026" /></a>Emma Jane Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16465250983279040901noreply@blogger.com0
