Subject: Blue Balloon-final version
Posted by: Andrew Stone

It seems like it must have been a sad birthday party. After lots of fits and starts, or in this case wetting, then drying, then re-wetting my cut paper, I finally got into the studio to finish the final version of the nude print, "Balloon". It ended up as an edition varie as I never really settled on a background color and most have a cobalt violet ground, reprinted with a light glaze of quinacradone pink/indanthanthrone blue with a dark blue keyblock. I'm happy to be done with it as it was meant to be a quick print based on a loose drawing and it has just dragged on and on. I'm envious of all you organized types that manage to work efficiently and get work done on schedule. I can't figure out where the time goes. Balloon, Japanese Moku Hanga print, edition varie of 30 with several A/Ps with slightly different background tonalities.
