Here’s the final ‘test’ print of these pots. I’m pretty happy with how it came out, barring a few dodgy bits of carving and colour choice in some parts. I am now working on a bigger version which will probably look very different!
This one is on a paper called Botan, it’s quite crisp and clean looking;
And this one is on Awagami paper, the texture in the paper gives it a very painterly look which I quite like:

Thanks Laura, it turned out as I had hoped so that’s good! I am definitely going to do some more on this theme as I have loads of pots!

I’ve loved watching the progress and thought processes of this artwork- what a difference the paper makes to the outcome. Really like this – the objects stand out from each other yet remain as a group – soft muted colours with some starkness – gorgeous
