Mezzotint

Towards the ending of this past year I chose to try my hand at Mezzotinting (its a pretty epic technique, were classmates call me insane for trying), completing a 6" by 4" rectangle. Sadly as it was the ending of the year I rushed through the actual illustrating phase and randomly used different tools to mark it up. Printing 4 proofs on some scrap paper and changing the second plate each time, which is the scrapes that get more intense each time.

This summer I am in the process of preparing another plate and will hopefully not epically fail when transferring my design to the plate.
