Artwork description:

This is the only colour pressing of my original Sea Spirits etching. Most of my mermaid etchings are in monochrome. The original idea was that the intricate lines in each were descriptive and striking enough not to rely on colour, however, some of you may disagree with this notion. If interested, I can arrange to make more pressings from each in colour.

For a description of the inspiration behind Sea Spirits, and a definition of the etching process, please refer to the monochrome Sea Spirits pressing which I uploaded the day before.

Materials used:

Original hand drawn line etching on zinc inked and pressed onto paper.
