More hard-ground etching!

I signed up again to use the print room last monday and produced another hard ground etching plate – a illustrated pattern of different fast foods. My initial idea was for the pattern to be featured as end pages to my zine – but during the construction of my zine I decided to use a different piece of work. However, I was pleased with the prints I produced, and I did feature one of the etchings in my final zine. I experimented by painted into one of the prints with water colour, but felt the colour overpowered the line of the etching print – so preferred the contrast of the black on white.
