Dry drawing materials (lithographic crayons, rubbing crayons) and the study of colour are at the heart of these lithographs. "Crayon 02" variations are printed on a small stone and enriched with hand colouring, monoprinting, chine collé and photoplate marks. "Crayon 07" variations are printed from a set of 3 large ball-grained aluminium plates; some of the plates are counter-etched to transform the drawing. No pendimento.
