Experimental print at the Mary Ward Centre over the past few weeks has been challenging but at last I feel I am getting somewhere . This is last weeks intaglio of a small white egret .The second print I added colour using the chin colle process but with fabric rather than paper as I have had problems finding good quality coloured tissue papers . It has worked well . The image is from a drawing I made at the Horniman Museum’s collection of taxidermy birds and animals in Forest Hill London .
