Deep One

Deep One
Etching
Spring 2006

So my boyfriend found this picture of the occult god Cthulhu and asked me to make a print after it. So I did. I altered the pose just a little and made two plates, one with the line drawing and one with the watery bubbles, it was after the learning experience with the Black Eye, so I tried to use the multiple etching process to get different lighter and darker shades to my advantage. So, for example, the eye is not a different color but simply deeper etched.
