Dry point


In last weeks session I experimented with dry point etchings. Here are two taken from images I had drawn whilst at the V&A. They really show how you can get drastically different images from the same plate just by playing around with the wiping techniques. 


I then made a few dry point prints form this old photo of my dad, it's my favourite picture of him and is (along with other family photos) next to my bed. I prefer the image in these prints but feel they are less succesful than the V&A ones.
