"After a windy day" lithograph 27 x 40 cm
© Elizabeth Tyler 2010 |
It's autumn again and the old apple tree we have in the garden is shedding apples and leaves in the wind. I love the interesting structure of the tree trunk with it's layers of crusty bark. It's taken over 70 years for the tree to reach this stage of maturity and not unlike most humans it has great character with the ripe old age. From a distance the trunk looks a nondescript brownish grey but a closer study reveals all shades of green, blue, orange, umber and red.
For each of these lithographs I made eight drawings, one for each colour. You can see the whole printing process with some of my previous works here:
