After collecting my screen prints from the print room, I remembered I needed to collect my etching plates. I decided that I really liked them as individual pieces, I had left ink on them from my old prints and it really added to them. I liked the look of the metal plate with the photograph in black ink. I decided I wanted to use the plates and one of my three final pieces.
