Rust print, charcoal - Unique
58cm x 38cm
Unframed
 
Life drawing captured in two sessions, one to get the outline for the rust print, the second to add the charcoal shading.
 
The drawing starts with a rust print. The figure outline is reversed and scratched through a painted steel sheet to the steel surface below. A rusting solution was sprayed on the metal, the paper laid on top, covered and left for several days for the rust to soak in.
 
Only two rust prints were taken from this plate.
