Just a couple of photos from the last stages of my Lithograph made from an image of my dear friend Anna’s baby boy Jakob.
I orginally planned the Lithograph as a Christmas present to Anna and her husband Markus, Anna’s sister, their Mum and Dad and Anna’s aunt – who is a very close friend of my mother’s. They had all been a great help to me during my time in Munich so it was a nice way for me to say thank-you, but also I like the idea that Jakob will grow up with this image of him on the walls in the houses of his close family – the prints forming a circle between his special people, even as far afield as Britain.
I started the print in December but due to a malfunction with the stone I was forced to turn a simple black and white print into a two-colour print, I printed the first layer in a light grey and this week finished it off with a second stone printing in a slightly transparent black.
