Clint Barker’s Burleigh Bongos 2015

February 19, 2015 Basil Hall

Clint Barker has just finished a four plate colour etching at Basil Hall Editions. At left is the final proof, printed by Basil, Clint and Rebecca Drew in Braidwood today. The image comprises red, yellow, blue-black and cream plates; the cream being a final over-roll. Clint’s has adapted his customary way of developing an image to his etching, and the finished product has all the painterly qualities of his canvases and the textural qualities of four deeply bitten and worked plates.
