Prompt

A print worked in exactly two inks, red and blue, of a dramatic heroic figure. The drawing is built entirely from engraved style contour line and hatching, the two ink plates deliberately misregistered so they fringe and overlap against each other. Bare paper left around the figure, no third colour, no solid fill, no background scene. Slightly theatrical pose, printed on rough cream stock.

Tips

  • 1Deliberate misregistration is the signature. Ask for it explicitly.
  • 2Line and hatching only. Solid fill turns it into a poster.
  • 3Two inks. A third breaks the whole logic.
