Copper Plates

I found the Copper Spirit plates. They need a good clean up, but not to bad for being in storage for so long. Always wanted to weld the plates together for a wall hanging. Kind of glad I didn’t.

The plates still need some fiddling around with. But I am glad to confirm to myself that the Copper Spirit will fit on a standard 22×30 inch sheet of paper.

My plan is to start with the bottom plates and print the image in layers. This is what I was left with when I took all the top layers to get to the bottom plates. It is going to need a little bit of planning and organization. Multiple possibilities also. The plates are etched on both sides of the copper plate.

When I get a few printed versions of the Copper Spirit. I am going to glue the Copper Spirit together and hang it on the wall. I don’t weld, but I am sure there is a good glue strong enough to hold it together. That I can do myself:)

Dreaming of getting back in the Studio and playing with lots of ink,
