Artwork Description

i let it go

0.0 x 0.0

This 18 x 24 inch soft ground etching was printed with black ink on white heavyweight Rives BFK 24 x 32 inch paper. The print has been enhanced with watercolor and ink washes for atmosphere. The artist started this portrait with a basic idea of the frame and character of the face she wanted to portray. During the drawing process, the portrait become "it's own animal" and a new dynamic was formed between artist and subject as this etching was born. The title of this piece has been spelled in all lowercase letters to imply the continuous movement and development of this relationship, up until the completion of the edition when the ties are severed.
