Whilst the prints are designed to be viewed in the flesh, I understand that the reach of the project would be much greater with good studio images of the prints.
I went into the studio with the intention of capturing close up details of the finish of the prints, bringing to the fore the production method and the little humanistic details that might not be as visible from afar.
The drawings always have a start point but this one (above) is beautiful and perhaps the most reminiscent of a human's drawing style.
These two images (above) show the sheer density and complexity that the plotter managed with ease.
The three images above show the breakup of lines whilst I was experimenting with the medium and media. The white ink was much less consistent than the silver ink that I eventually settled on.
The three images above show one of the most successful prints in the slim black frame I decided on for the proposed exhibition of the prints. I felt a black frame was appropriate in not interfering with the print in any way.
Above; detail of test drawings. Note also the registration marks that the machine performs.
The above two images show mis registration from an early test print. These mistakes were very much enforceable by the designer, showing a level of 'interference' synonymous with Hybrid Practice.
Above two images show the breakup of line when the calligraphic marker was used. The inconsistent line was increased by the choice of a grainy watercolour stock.
