Finding a medium

The last couple of weeks I have been busy finding a final medium for my final images. I have decided upon dry point - it matches my drawing style perfectly and I feel that as I have used most other types of printing medium this is the one I have enjoyed the most.




I have chosen to use circles to link back to my love of the circular portraits that were predominate in the victorian era. I feel this gives the work a nostalgic feeling of looking into Woolf's past. I am trying to show her life through tiny windows of imagery.

Trying to see what the plates would look like by placing news print over the dry point plates and rubbing over them. It didn't really work, but I liked the images that were created.
