this would make a great installation with the Dock sprouting, rooting and growing into the paper
the 6" x 6"s and the old moss/lichen picnic table...
perhaps sitting under the old apple tree.... Use your imagination and watch it grow. With time limitations and wanting to unload the press to catch the effects of the Dock root with the paper I chose to break it down. To catch up here it may help to check out this previous entry... http://gregpatch.blogspot.com/2013/07/before-dismantling-press.html
and then with the prints I felt I wanted to place a wash of a variant color upon the prints for contrast and a softening. I used coffee w/cream (1/2 & 1/2, where cassein is derived from). Hope you enjoy these finished? pieces.
