About this etching
Line-etching on zinc. Printed on 300g/sm BFK Rives etching paper.
This etching was made only with lines in three etches. It was a technical challenge I gave myself, to see if I could create a seascape with lines that don't follow the usual classical style. The lines all have the same width and any brightness variations are achieved only by adding more lines next to each other. From start to finish this etching took close to two months of work while printing a single print can take up to an hour.
The title means 'North Sea at Night' in German.Shipping
