Solar Plate Etching

7"x5"

This print is an experiment of sorts as I try to find the right way of working with the solar plate etching process to best reflect my artistic goals. I scanned this watercolor and ink drawing as a grayscale image and then printed it on a transparency to burn onto the plate. It came out pretty well but I am unsure if I will continue with this method of making a plate and may need to make a few more proofs to be sure.
