Still in the monochrome mood with this 60x80cm head and shoulders portrait I am working on. I thought I’d try a new approach with big brushstrokes. #takesagestodry #oilpainting #portrait #portraitpainter #blackandwhite #monochrome #vintagephoto #commissionedart #fionawilson

More scraping and burnishing on the face to make it lighter. Oh my poor arms! #mezzotint #mezzotintprint #printmaking #intaglio #copperplate #printingplate #scraping #copper #yellowribbon @glasgowprintstudio #laborious

The mezzotint part of the plate printed up really dark, so I did another hour or so of scraping and burnishing, then some roulette and dry point lines on the hands and banner to make them darker #mezzotint #etching #intaglio #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #gothicart #yellowribbon #theyellowribbon #ghoststory #handmade #handprinted #blackink #boneblack #proof #artistsproof #fionawilson #graphicimpact @glasgowprintstudio

I’m just an old scrubber! Seriously though my arms are killing me after two days of rubbing ink onto my printing plate, then wiping it back off. I take my hat off to the master printers at @glasgowprintstudio who do this everyday. #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #boneblack #intaglio @intaglioprintmaker #etchingink #copperplate #etchingplate #mezzotint #mezzotintprint #wipingout #ink #scrim #rubadubdub

Dirty girl! Inking up the plate and getting excited to see my first mezzotint emerge from the inky blackness. #mezzotint #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #copperplate #plate #printingplate #pinup #vintagewoman #filmstar #boneblack @intaglioprintmaker

Mezzotint madness. I can’t get enough of this filming fun as it changes in the light. Off to make my first proof then more scraping and burnishing! #mezzotint #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #imightgoblind #copperplate #etching #intaglio #printingplate

Rouletting a copper plate to make a mezzotint. I repeat this action over the area, turn the plate 10 degrees and repeat, until no more shiny bits of copper can be seen. I did three revolutions so over 100 passes on this little bit of the plate.#mezzotint #intaglio #intaglioprintmaking #mezzotintprint #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #preparation #roulette #timeconsumingbutworthit #fionawilson

Fabulous opening night @glasgowprintstudio with @marion.macphee holding fort at the bar. She makes the best mulled wine in the west! So many great great works by the printmaker members. More pics of the rest of the show later. I was too busy catching up with old friends! Best day ever #previewnight #opening #glasgowprintstudio #printmaking #printgallery #gallery #printmakers #exhibition #fionawilson
