This was my first drypoint etching ever from a few years ago. My first time working in any form of printmaking other than woodcut. Check out the amateur lack of control of my line in his body. The anatomy is so off.
This is an etching I did of an octopus (hopefully that part is obvious)
but it didn’t turn out that well, and because I didn’t want to waste the very expensive paper, I fixed it withhhh watercolours c:
Hopefully my teachers like my etchings
