The next in my red and black series which currently also includes
[link] and
[link]I find myself strangely drawn to fire towers, though I've never even seen one. It's farely in line with the unlikely fondness I feel for pylons, even though I recognise them as the great blighters of the countryside. Towering, skeletal giants strung out across the landscape linking everything together. Fire Towers are even better because they're usually in a forest and have a cool little room on the top.
When I've done a few more I want to do some prints of this series. I'm definitely going to try and screenprint one or two, but as for the others, or as some kind of full set, how would you like to see these? I know very little about how the world of art prints works so I'm curious as to what people would be interested in paying for if I did go for it.
Also, I you can't find the right color of paper perhaps you could stain it in a soak/bath with something like watered down acrylic or even tea. I'm not sure if you'd get problems in evenness of stain with entire sheets of paper though, but it is a possibility.
This series is annoying me too as I'd have to find some seriously yellowed paper, because that colour looks real fugly when it's printed. I had such high hopes.
For what it's worth, I'd definitely buy a print of this if I weren't so broke.
