Solar Plate Print- Vivi

Description

Hey Y'all! Just wanting to show what I am doing a bit in school right now.

This is a solar plate print for my printmaking class. [link]
Our teacher said we should try to use a photograph or some other digital image for our first try at solar plate, so I picked my Vivi image [link] since I knew it would have a good range of deep blacks and clear whites.

I also have two zinc litho prints I am working on, but they won't be done for another week or two, so you'll just have to wait!

Anyway, this is 5x7, on BFK Reeves and inked with intaglio ink.

PS. Sorry for the little bit of crookedness and blurriness in areas. The paper is slightly larger than my scanner @___@

Gorgeous! I just learned how to do solar plate this last semester and am hoping to continue printmaking!
