I've been working a lot on experimenting with, and perfecting concrete canvases for printing. So it's a nice change of pace to instead go back to good old fashioned paper, and print some stone and concrete textures onto that medium. This is the start of a short series, based on textures I've photographed and copied from the Barbican Estate. Some of the surfaces, while made from concrete, are studded with other types of minerals to make them look more like stone or marble. The scale of the Barbican Estate is so awesome that it's easy to miss these fantastic quirky intricacies. I've tried to bear this out by using different gradations of grey, along with using tiny amounts of bright and bold colours to draw out the detail.
