"Without a Car(e)"
This is one of my first intaglio proofs on pearl grey stonehenge paper. It is far from perfect or being a final. I am just very happy with it because it is a successful proof. I wanted it to have the feeling of an old photograph so I mixed a warm sepia tone-esque ink. It was difficult at first because I forgot that it is best to soak your paper in water for at least an hour before printing. If you don't, the print will absolutely not turn out. It kind of looks like the vague image you want except it's smudgy and gross. So, I learned my lesson and soaked the paper.
