  1. A print of my more or less completed #etching of #blackness castle. Sometimes referred to as 'the ship that never sailed' because of its ship like shape pointing out into the #forth West of #Edinburgh.
    Used #spitbite for the sky and wax for the texture in the foreground sea.

  2. Another #etching from our visit to #Mull last month.
    This time a view across #LochScridain on the West coast of Mull, looking towards #CreachBheinn.

  3. Another new #etching, this time of the #TayBridge looking from the #Dundee waterfront. Between the bridge supports are the piers of the first, 1878, bridge which collapsed after just a year and a half, killing all 75 people on a North British Railway train bound for Dundee from Edinburgh.

    This is a 300x210mm brass plate etching, using #sugarLift for the bridge and #spitBite with wax resists for the hills and water.
