Ripples of Sorrow

This is my final print for printmaking class. I will be taking the advance class next semester.
I etched this on a 12x9 inch copper plate. I used a mix of drypoint, hardground, and aquatint. I had scratched my plate pretty badly actually, but the aquatint covered most of the damage up. Even though I had originally drew the lines on top of hardground and etched them, they started to fade so I had to go over them with the drypoint technique. But doing so many curves was hard and I made a lot of mistakes!

Regardless, printmaking class was fun!


These are some other prints I made with my plate. They are far from perfect.
