Artwork description:
This is a strong map like image that shows the amazing network of tiny lifelines that make up a leaf. I have inked the etching plate by hand with 3 colours to give a glow around the delicate leaf skeleton. The plate is run through an etching press and dampened paper to release the image onto it.
Materials used:
Photopolymer etching, etching inks on Somerset paper
