1st prints

i promised more blogjammin' and i'm glad to be able to deliver. this is my first attempt at printmaking. the prints were made by etching a clear sheet of plexiglass with a sharp metal etching tool. the sound was unbearable but i'm pretty pleased with the results. the first picture was the initial print, the second print was after i went back in and did a little more work, adding the background and subtly refining the skull.

Hurray for printmaking!
