Cropduster

Crop Duster, 4’ x 7,’ printed on May 17, 2017 in 5 panels on Canson’s Moulin du Roy paper.  I wanted to get the circular motion of a crop duster who sprays, climbs, circles, descends and sprays again.  Because time was of the essence, I did preliminary and full-scale sketches for several weeks beforehand, getting each plane placed where I wanted.  I used these sketches as my pattern and painted the ink on plexi panels, before running each one through the press separately.  They are to be put together and exhibited as one image.
