I decided to use this image to continue the series

This is the image on the computer after doing half tone screens to separate CMYK colours

first attempt with just magenta, cyan and yellow

addition of black. looks nothing like original. i realised id mixed up the screens printing yellow screen with black in and vice versa

second attempt showed me that i’d still mixed up the screens reversing (I can’t remember now)…

colours printing on correct screens

after deepening the magenta

three versions together

three side by side

portrait orientation from a distance

works 1, 2, 3

three of the four in the sequence (2, 3, 4)

close up of work 1

close up of work 2

close up of work 3

close up of work 4

possible photo for next work in series

still thinking i have some gaps. might work up this one as an in-between image 2 and three maybe?

so many to choose from and i can always take more photos…
