Go big, or go home!

In other words, when presented with a big etching press, take advantage of the situation and do something big. The press I use at TDS is only 18" wide. I will have to ship these back home, but it will be worth it.
Here is my first monoprint of Catherine Kernan's workshop, 22x30" full bleed. Two monotypes (warm colors, then cool blues and greens) were printed first, then the big collagraph plate was inked in the dark tones a la poupee' and printed last. Not bad for the first one. Sorry about the funny angle! I'll take better photos of everything when I'm back.
Cheers,
Reb
Fresh off the press- taken at an angle. The print is really rectangular, 22x30"
