Description Please view it large. Those yellow lines took a LONG time to make :3.

This is a three plate print. I learned and utilized two new techniques- the squiggly lines I experimented with in Daphne, and an aquatint-reduction technique (its the blue ink) that a mentor showed me.

And yes, Labrynth is an awesome movie. David Bowie, Muppets, blatant 80's stereotypes, and trippy things like this, what more could one ask for?!

I really like how you can see every little swirl, spiral, and loops on the skin.

Having helped make half a dozen prints of this, I can easily I say I know this piece almost as well as one of my own poems... good jorb again on those lines, and I love the hand pinching around the eye, the layering of shadow and color and all that jazz...
