[James Baker]

Cheers guys. Due to the uncontrollable nature of the process there is a constant range of resulting marks. Thanks very much T*3 for your assistance.

It pays to advertise I am glad to say, but there are still two left

[angel41]

Loving this one James. Reminds me of Micallef.

[twist65]

those bears keep staring at me...

[James Baker]

Thanks all. - Twist its all about Hyenas and Baboons with me, but many thanks. I have started to perfect the process for my own purposes. The ink can be moved around now on the paper allowing for some deconstruction and expression.

I do like this James, nice technique...

[James Baker]

Cheers rico, one of my favourites too. The stars show all the places I have been lucky enough to visit in my travels and work. Most of my known world.

[bazzj04]

Very nice James.

[joeschmo]

I like these, nice and friendly.

[Michael Jacob]

Nice Video and style! Reminds me of a Jewish artist Isreal Abramofsky I collect. He would mount glass on an easel and paint landscapes as he saw it. He would then imprint it onto paper for a monoprint. It was backwards, but very nice stuff.

[James Baker]

Cheers guys. Yep mono-prints can be achieved using many techniques. It essentially means a one off image using printing techniques. Each is unique. John Cage would set fire to paper and then put it through the printing press.

The materials I use to create mine are very basic. I have just worked hard at eliminating some off to the random properties of the process. I have been asked to run a series of demonstrations in the technique back Loughborough University School of Art and Design which is very exciting.

[kunstrasen]

Wow James, some great new stuff. Excellent!

[Rourke]

very nice James
Love the top one

[James Baker]

Thanks everyone for such a positive response. It looks like the last of these has now been sold.

Cheers Stewart, and a huge thanks to everyone else for such a great response to the new work during my temporary return back to the UK.

Hi James - picked up the New Statesman Printer's Proof and Companionship from Red Propeller. Very Nice! and Great Value ;D How many of the PP's were there?

Put myself down on the mailing list.

[James Baker]

Dappy

You have done well. Congratulations and cheers, I am glad you like both, they are a good pair. With regards to edition details you have to speak to Sarah at RP who is both Miss Devon and the PP oracle. I am sure it was just a couple but its a long time since I signed those I am afraid.

Thanks again for your post.

[.dappy]

Hi again! I will wait for the print to arrive and see the numbers. RP are top draw when it comes to shipping things out and info (not that I have bought much from them ) in the past.
