Golden Butterflies - Limited edition pen plot
Uniball Signo broad, Sakura gelly roll and Pentel hybrid gel gold metallic inks on Somerset Black Velvet printmaking paper 280 gsm. 34.0 cm x 49.5 cm, unframed. This is a limited edition original drawing made in Adobe Illustrator and plotted using an AxiDraw V3/A3 plotter, a drawing robot - mine’s called Fuzz-3PO (Human/Plotter relations).
Limited edition of 10. These drawings are made to order so please allow a little extra time for fabrication and delivery.
Drawing using a plotter produces technically precise images which retain the analogue elements of drawing, the interaction between ink and surface, and combine them with the unique characteristics and quirks of the drawing machine. I enjoy the ordered process of drawing and planning a plot in combination with the small elements of chaos in its execution - some of my favourite areas of the drawings are often the areas of slight overlap or an unexpected combination of inks producing new colour. Plots of the same pattern will vary slightly as a result of the process.
Caring for your drawing:
Where possible I make use of lightfast and archival inks on acid free paper. Inks can still fade or change colour over time if they are exposed to strong UV light so I recommend hanging your drawing somewhere that is not in direct sunlight and when framing the drawing to use UV filtered glass.
