Sauvie Island Game Trail - photogravure print - The Weekly Edition

I make landscape pictures in ordinary locations near my home.  I have never be a photographer who seeks out the iconic views of known places, not because I dislike the work made in these spaces, I have never been in a position to visit them.  When I do find myself outside I am drawn to natural shape and graphics I discover.  In these spaces I look for a view that makes me feel calm, and peaceful, in other words, good.  The swirling shape of the grass and the lines created by the animals living here made for such a moment for me on this day. This hand-pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel carbon black, raw sepia, and warm sepia inks with a dash of Charbonnel sanguine ink on Hahnemühle copperplate paper. I printed an edition of 7 numbered prints and  2 A/P prints.  Hand-pulled print by Ray Bidegain Limited edition of 7 6.0 x 7.5  inches on an 15 x 20 sheet. Signed numbered and dated by the artist on the lower front.
