After a couple of weeks working totally digitally (see previous post) I returned to print many more gum arabic prints. Here are three of them. The bottom images were two of the prints accepted in the A4 Print exhibition in Cornwall. I wanted to try to capture a feeling of fragility and the passing of time. The fletting and often apparently timeless nature of childhood when it's possible to play on the beach without a care. The Gum arabic process and the ochres help this.
