Not everything works

If it wasn’t for the fact that I want to post a print a day ( because that was the challenge I set myself) I wouldn’t choose to post this- but as it is this is this only print I have available to show for today, and it’s not great, though I will admit that some of the problem is the poor quality of the photograph which I took in  a hurry.

Today’s print is a soft ground etching I made the other week out of an embroidered piece I did a few years ago and which I found in the studio tidy-up ( which somehow has ground to a halt!) and no longer had a use for.

However, the point of doing this was to see if it worked- and I have identified that there are aspects of this I can work with, and aspects that I need to work around if I want to make prints in this way again. So it might not be the best print I have posted- but it has a use to me.

The challenge with this plate is to see what I can do with it to get an interesting print.
