Like myself, Skellum (Colin) prefers printing dark and contrasty.

But the print that he has sent to me, is the total opposite, in that it is a 'high key' print of some white garlic cloves on a white plate, but with one darker, separate clove, to add a bit of interest.

It's been done very well, and I have found that framing the print with some dark card, improves it even more.

High key is something that I have tried myself in the past, with mixed results = it's not quite as easy as it looks!

So well done on what you have produced Skellum. It will make a good (alternative) addition to my collection. Many thanks.

Terry S

Glad you liked them

My apologies to JakubV- I've been working away from home (hence missing round 116), and got home to find 2 prints waiting for me.
One is a neutral to cool print print, square from 6x6. It's a minimalist still life which uses shadows and empty space to create interest.
The second is a warm-tone print, An urban landscape which is rich in texture and tone.
Thank you Jakub, and sorry to have kept you in suspense. Both prints are very welcome, and I hope all is well with your new arrival. Congratulations.

I'm glad that they arrived alright, I was already thinking which prints I will be sending you if these got lost in a post system somewhere
