Finite Etching, 6th State

Here is the 6th state of the previously posted etching. It's getting very close to where I want it to be. Once it is finished I will take a better quality digital photograph of it and post it.

4th State

3rd State

Original Sketch

These are images of an etching that I have been working on. It's becoming somewhat of an experiment. I'll upload the 5th state soon. I was thinking about finality and the opposition of geometric versus organic forms when I first sketched this out.

Value Study for Etching

This is a value study for an etching I am working on. The sky is not how it will look. Will post that soon.

Etching Mockup

This is the beginning of a 12" x 12" copper plate etching. I have etched this line drawing into the plate and the next step is to add lighting. I am working on some value studies right now.
