Simple Shapes

Next was a move to simple shapes referenced by Kandinsky. The first print above is my brayer cleaning sheet which shows the colours I was working with, mixing them on the plate.

You can see the silhouette print and its corresponding ghost print in the next four prints. The very fine lines of the first print were made with a credit card edge.

The last print is an overlay of a ghost print printed in lavender (red, blue and white paints) with sienna overprint.

The shapes were cut from yuppo to give a sharp definition. This sort of experimentation makes you realise the complexity of work like the Kandinsky inset at the top which was my starting point for inspirations
