Artist: Yumi Narita-Martinez
Medium: Aquatint
Dimensions: 16H x 12W x 1.25D
Description: This piece was made using a 4-color aquatint, in which the image was transferred onto the copper plate by scratching or drawing. To create texture, spray paint was used to coat the plate prior to further etching in acid. The plate was then reclaimed (brought back to the initial stage), repeated 4 times in different color inks (CMYK) to produce a full color print. This piece is a labor of love, where the color is meant to enhance the joy of childhood memories.
