By heavily diluting the printing inks with turpentine I wanted to allow the colours to naturally  merge; by being selective in the areas I cut out I wanted to present the specific areas of interaction. I enjoy the subdued appearance although would prefer to create more of a contrast in tone and surface quality with the next series. 

With this smaller series I used the diffused orange background to display the subtle tone changes. Working in this way, where no paintbrush is used I feel is out of my comfort zone, but the natural qualities revealed from the process allows me to more competently understand the medium, as I observe the interaction and diffusion of tone.
