Printmaking experiment (and the “plate” after I used it to print)

I made this by cutting and scratching lines into a cut open piece of broth carton, inking it up, and then wiping away all the excess ink. That leaves ink only left in the etched away parts, and when it’s pressed to paper, the ink transfers.

Probelosodon (2026), foil lithograph, edition of 2+2AP

the first print from my residency at Women's Studio Workshop! this is based on some drawings in my sketchbook from a museum visit; initially just a test for the litho technique i would go on to teach during the Art-in-Ed classes that were part of the program, but the print came out so well that i decided to make a small edition of it.
