Thanks Leah, drawing is a real challenge for me, once I get passed the drawing then I can make it into a print, which I enjoy so much more.

Tahnja

absolutely beautiful. you’ve done a wonderful job. Dry point etching? I don’t think I know what that is, excuse my ignorance
Belinda "Billy... replied

Drypoint etching, its scratching into a plate and not useing chemicals in the process. This particular one is scratched into acetate. Then once I have scratched it away with a drypoint needle, I can then get the correct ink and print as many as I would like up. I like etching, its drawing into a material. B
Mark Peterson
