Interesting concept, Jean, but it seems somewhat devious. I would be
suspect of someone who told me I was getting one only 20 prints but
saw the same image somewhere else on a different coloured paper.
There are a couple of artists I know of who do that and I wouldn't
buy their work for that reason.

If we call it a 'Limited' edition then we should limit it to the
quantity we claim for the edition. If we want more money then
increase the edition size and sell 'em.

I keep amazing notes down the side of the good print or bon a tirer, the
"good to print" copy that I always keep in my notebook. I can duplicate that
print exactly from the notes, down to the "pixel" so to speak.

Unquote.

It's really interesting to hear how people record the details of their
prints. I do exactly the same as yourself with notes on a print, and a good
print mounted in my print book with additional notes. I recently had to
reprint an edition, and thanks to my notes I was able to replicate the image
exactly. I also keep a selection of colour test prints with the blocks, and
write some notes on the blocks themselves.

Cheers,

Mark.

Viza, when I have used metallic oil base printing inks they have sunk into my paper
and become lusterless and brown or gray. I have used Winsor & Newton's gold-metallic
bronze ink for brush or calligraphic pen, that can be thinned w/water. It worked beautifully,
and when burnished, even better. Speedball also makes specialized calligraphic inks. Not sure
if they make the metallics. I also mixed PearlEx Brilliant Silver and Gold Jacquard powders with
methyl cellulose paste and applied it through a stencil to my dry moku hanga prints. That worked to
give a softer, more satiny finish.
