Artist's Comments

plate 2, final print - many hours of work, probably around 10-12 hours

this is my best print out of my etching class. i am very proud of it, and it was also the first time i used aquatint too

etching - linework and aquatint, a la poupe method

music was my inspiration... i listen to a lot of music while i work, and it helps me

The tones look very nice(not that I know a whole lot about printing and such) It makes a nice light effect along with the yellow highlight and has a cool surreal feeling to it :D

Fantastic.

I fucking love it. Don't particularly have the brain capacity to tell you WHY, but I just DO.

thank you
printing is very process-oriented, and i really enjoyed it. i had to basically layer each tone over and over, in a sense... using acid to do so
it was time-consuming but enjoyable and worth it to me

this was by far my best print. i'm glad you liked it, and thank you for the comment.

And right you should be. It's lovely in all the right ways.

I hate that I never seem to be able to give a detailed response about why I like an image, but I really like this one.
I love the stoplight, and the yellow of his eye. I immediately associate the two, I'm not sure if that's what you meant to do or not.
His teeth make me think of buildings in the city. And I imagine that girl holding an iPod out, swinging the headphones towards him...trying to bring a piece of her world into his.
It's just stunning, and I envy your talent. :heart:

I want to see the light leave your eyes.
