Aluminum Monotype

5"x7"

For this print I used a student grade etching paper instead of the Hahnemuhle Copperplate that I used all of last semester. The paper is a little yellow compared to the bright white paper I had been using. But the most interesting difference is that the student grade paper does not pick up the subtle plate tone in the same way as the more expensive paper. Besides the difference in printing due to the paper I am pleased with this little print. I may try to use this image again and work on creating more detail in the bare limbs of the trees.
