Using the stencil that I made last week(see below) I rolled a pale pink /buff coloured etching ink (containing lots of translucent white) onto a thin sheet of aluminium. The stencil was placed over one of my prints and the inked aluminium sheet placed on top of the stencil and then the whole lot was run through the etching press.
Heres one of the prints produced showing colour in the central brickwork and also the stencil showing the excess ink on top.
After 4 prints the stencil was getting a bit ropey!
I also printed a few more proofs from the stone but this time just used noir a monter rather than the crayon black : noir a monter combo.The prints though were not as good using noir a monter on its own - the dark areas did not print as velvety black as they had done when crayon black was also included into the ink mix.
