i'll eat you up, i love you so

I think I have figured out what I want to do with my personal Etching project.
I have been treating all of my etching stuff like it has to be absolutely perfect because the process of etching seems so permanent (at least in my mind it does) and because I am a student I have this sort of perception that everything I do outside of my sketchbook has to be a totally pristine, complete, finished project.
I don't think that is the point though, so with a little encouragement from a few people I know I have cut a few plates and just started to draw on them. I'm just drawing and I am just going with what comes out so let's hope that is a good thing!
This doesn't seem huge, but it is kind of a big step for me to just grab a plate and draw whatever comes to my mind. I am treating this like a sketchbook, which is where most of my favorite work I do turns up.

Project "Etch-a-Sketch" if you will ;]

I will have more new things up later, meanwhile here is a dump of stuff I should put up more periodically but instead I am just doing it now (click to make them bigger):







Das all!
