The Arpeggi series of drawings seemed to lend itself particularly well to the idea of being recoloured, and so after some experimentation, I settled on the idea of making six variants, which would be contained within a box, or clamshell folio.
At the base level, the six variations are red, yellow and blue, alongside black, white and grey. Three hues and three tones. Effectively creating a sextet of variations, or parameters, to work within. From there each piece takes on its own particular characteristics of course.
There’s a long tradition in fine art printmaking of working in sets and offering those sets within a single folio. To my mind, Warhol’s electric chair series is a particularly noteworthy example. It’s a really satisfying format to work with, and one I’m sure I’ll return to. There's more than a little inspiration from the Goldberg Variations here too.
The six studies encapsulate the idea of creating multiple similar sculptural forms, and hanging them on a grid, redolent of a musical stave, in such a way that they somehow resemble a series of rising notes, a kind of visual arpeggio.
As the drawings for the Arpeggi series emerged, I started to work on each of the hanging ‘notes’, and their arrangement within the compositions, creating dozen of individual colour and tone studies to be combined, as modular elements, into the final editions.
The grid itself was also the result of a huge amount of study into contemporary rhythms, looking at how the analogue and digital can be combined to deliver new forms, that can successfully gel into a singular cohesive image.
Chuck Elliott is experimenting with the fine art of abstract colour print making, and advancing it into the C21st, pure logical progression!

Chuck Elliott
Chuck Elliott (b. 1967, Camberwell, London) is a pioneer of digitally generated art. He claims to have used the first Apple Macintosh imported to the UK in 1984, the same year Apple launched the computers with their now infamous Orwellian advertising campaign. Acquiring his own machine in 1989, he has been drawing, sculpting, editing and compositing digitally ever since. Graduating in 1992, he founded a succession of small, successful studios in London. In 2005 he moved to Bristol, where he now works full time on his sublime, fluid studies in light, colour, motion and liquid geometry. Delighting in the machines' ability to hone and craft sculptural drawings, render, edit, mix, cut, paste, sculpt, and re edit, colour spaces are manipulated, light levels finely tuned, and a myriad of images and series of derivations are produced, using processes analogous to the way in which modern music is realised. Chuck Elliott is reinterpreting the essence of abstract fine art printmaking for the digital age. Pure logical progression.
