It took about a month, but I got a first printing of my Hokusai study

I love seeing the work behind an artwork - reply with your process pics! Copper etching progress✨️ I always fall in love with etchings before I ever print them because the copper itself is so beautiful. Sadly that doesn't always translate to paper as well as I would like 😅 "Held by a Thread", 2023

Photo of a copper plate coated with black hard ground. A graphite transferred image is on the hard ground: the preliminary drawing for "Held by a Thread." A hand is poised over the plate holding a needle point etching tool.

Photo of the copper plate etching (in progress) on top of a sketchbook page showing preparatory sketches for the piece. The plate is 5 by 7 inches.

Close-up photo of the in-progress copper plate etching, showing areas where the hard ground has been scraped away to reveal the copper underneath to be etched. Twisted vines, leaves, and a spiderweb are central to the image.

Photo of the final stage of the copper etching before the hard ground was removed to be printed. The image, shown in bright copper against a dark ground, depicts a dense mass of wisteria vines growing upwards with a figure curled up within.
