reflection!!!!

i have finished everything now, i am decorating my book and it looks very colorful. After i have done this i am not sure what i am going to do because after all of this i am finished everything.

What i could have done better!

I could have spent more time on my etching and made it look more neater. Some of my etching prints don't have enough ink on them and on my other prints i have too much ink. What i could have done to make it have more ink and make it have less ink is put the ink on the areas that need it and then take off ink where areas need it. so therefore i have learnt my lesson, my lesson was to put not so much ink on and then look at the areas that need more ink and look at the other areas that have too much ink.

My Artist Statement!

My etching is called "Distinctive Nature" because my etching is about nature being violent. I say this because the snake is trying to eat the butterfly and the butterfly is trapped between two rocks. The turtle is trying to swim against the strong current and it is trying to get to the frog and eat it.

Reflection on my etching process!

I have completed my etching and i have done four black prints, a blue one, a red one and a purple which is red and blue together. I had to hand colour one of my four black prints and there is a variety of colours and lines. When i finished my etching i stated another one and it was small and it was of a bird. I made three prints of my bird a black one, a red one and a blue one. The etching process was hard because you have to put ink on the etching then rub it all over but you have to be carefull that you don't put too much or too less because a small amount of ink goes a long way. I have called my etching "Distinctive Nature" this is because the snake is trying to eat the butterfly that is trapped between two rocks and the turtle is trying to swim against the strong current and it is trying to get to the frog and eat it.
