A3 paper, A4 printed area. This is a companion piece to my prints of Arthur's Seat. This image focuses on the 'radical road' a path that winds up the side of the Salisbury Crags and gives stunning views over Edinburgh. The path is steep and clings to the side of the rocky face. It also has an awesome name.
This print is available in: Green/Orange/Dark Grey/Red
Green/Brown/Blue/Red
Green/Brown/Dark Grey/Red
I found this large piece of wood which had mould forming at the bottom and making its way up. Although, it was very damaged, the actual surface of the wood was smooth, making it easy to work with printing inks rather than acrylics which are difficult to work with in-between washes. The lino print technique was the perfect method to use as I was able to show the mould through the outlines. The prints are faded to the point where you are not able to see what is going on in the image. However, this fits perfectly with the concept and the idea of ancient mark makings.
Perfection - what does it mean to you? For me (as I think for many artists) life is a constant balance between the wish to make things perfectly like I had it in mind - and constantly having to face that it doesn't work, will never work that way.
This edition of 20 prints (all different, see the whole edition here) is the result of my thinking about perfection.- And they are called "imperfection" :-)
On the backside they all carry a handwritten quote by Salvador Dali: "Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it." - The quote is by Dali, it's written by me :-)
I have several explanations for why these prints stand for "imperfection", but I don't want to preempt you in finding your own meaning and interpretation.
The sheets of paper on which prints numbered 10-20 are printed is a little larger than A5, about 30cm x 21 cm, 15.5 x 21.5 cm, printed on reclaimed paper.

A3, sketchbook - artist research. Investigating the work of Chinese brush painter Kwong Kuen-Shan and linoprint maker Lee Wright, found in a second gallery visit of local art in Crichowell, Wales.
A simple oriental woodblock inspired image. There are always magpies where I live and the superstitions associated with them interest me. Here is one feather - just an image, but also to be used as a Sympathy card - 'one for sorrow'.
