Wild Colour, Specimen 8
One of two specimens modified with tin as well as iron, and the most sculptural of the series. A tall black column puffs at the clouds. A cracked river tumbles from the dark tor. The edges are crisp where the others are soft, the texture reminiscent of a potter's wood-fired glaze.
Details
- Ink: Oak gall ink (Andricus kollari, foraged on Dartmoor) with gum arabic, modified with iron II sulphate and stannous chloride (tin).
