Terraskin 3

10/7/2016

This is the last of the terraskin experiments. I wanted to use dry media on this one - graphite, pan pastels, pencils. I ended up adding some paint and a bit of collage in order to have more tone tone variety. I was not able to achieve the darks I wanted by using only dry media. 

In general, I find it is easier to work on terraskin then on yupo even though both papers are synthetic and have no fiber. I do have some scraps of yupo lying around the studio and they are first in line  for some experimentation as soon as I find a chunk of time for that. 

I am going to look into the possibility of using terraskin to make my own books, but I will need a it more practice with this paper first. The big appeal for me it is that the paper is resistant and I do not have to worry about the grain when I cut it. It also takes ink exceptionally well because it is very smooth.
