Statement

This is a stone lithograph done for Intaglio/Lithography class during Fall semester 2008. It measures about 18x24". For this piece, I took inspiration from several fashion magazines. I didn't really plan out the drawing before starting on the stone; it evolved as I went. I used litho crayons, Sharpie markers, and a tusche wash. My initial prints didn't come out as well as I hoped, so I went back to the stone to try to pull out some more of the tones. However, the final prints were too dark.
