A Leaf - photogravure print - The Weekly EditionI am most often interested in the simplest of things, a gesture, a whisper, a leaf in the case. Brought home from a walk in the park this dry leaf felt beautiful and simple to me. This hand pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel carbon black, raw sepia, and warm sepia inks with a dash of Charbonnel sanguine ink on Hahnemhle copperplate paper. I printed an edition of 10 numbered prints and 2 A P prints. Hand pulled print by Ray Bidegain
