Well-tempered clavier (fugue) Print - Limited Edition of 1

This aquatint etching on copper is one in a series based on Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, which flow through all the musical keys, major and minor. I have assigned each hue in the color spectrum a musical "key." The series based on Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier uses a process known as sugar-lift aquatint to create brushstrokes-like textures by painting on the plate with a brush soaked in a mixture of china ink and sugar. This is covered with varnish and immersed in warm water; the sugar swells and lifts the varnish from the painted areas which are bitten by the acid. Finally the plate is inked and passed through the printing press.
