Beynac Castle - photogravure print - The Weekly Edition

Beynac Castle - photogravure print - The Weekly EditionBeynac Castle Stairs. This is a quiet view of a hallway and staircase in the Chteau de Baynac . Built in the 12th century, this structure had my mind racing, wondering what it might have been like to walk the halls and live in the times. I don't kid myself, I know I would not have lasted long under those conditions, but still I dream of what it was like. Hand pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel Noir 55981, and Warm Red inks on Hahnemhle

On this day I was drawn to the clock that is part of the facade of this church in Bordeaux

studio projects wait to resume when the weather warms

Printed with Gamblin Portland Black ink on Rives BFK paper

At the time I felt a bit bleak and my feelings came through in this negative

Limited edition of 11

KM-95 plates A-2 cut to size

like many artists I know

with a splash of sanguine inks on Hahnemühle copperplate paper

It lent itself well to my work in the studio this day

" the photographs are mostly self-portraits and speak about my experiences as a middle-aged man

I printed an edition of 8 numbered prints and 3 A/P prints

I found myself out in one of my favorite places
