Following on from my experimentation with my drypoint plate, layering it onto several prepared backgrounds, and still not managing to achieve the abstract and patterned appearance that I had aimed for. I have developed a second drypoint plate, working again from my photographic imaged, I have selected a very small section, which I then enlarged on the photocopier by 400%. I have transferred this onto the aluminium plate. I am hoping that the print outcomes are or a much more abstract nature thus allowing the viewer to focus more on the lines, tones, and textures of the images, as opposed to the contextualisation of the subject matter, with the ambition of provoking an awareness to the possible beauty in the everyday.
