Original Prints by Carole King

All featured prints have been produced using traditional printmaking methods. Each is individually numbered and signed in small editions.
Silkscreen Prints (Serigraphs) use layers of opaque and transparent inks, printed through paper or photographically created stencils.
Collagraphs are printed from relief blocks. Textures created from paper and textiles and lines incised and cut into the card blocks are printed using intaglio techniques on an etching press. Further layers can be introduced using chine colle (a layer of thin paper added at the printing stage- these can be plain or coloured or even pre - printed with another image)
