Post from artist Emily Brown
The first state of it is a line etching. The one of which you’ve written is a later state, worked a year later, which has tones through the addition of spit bite, aquatint and a trace of dry point.
Coincidentally, the day I began working on the latter state, Sept. 11, 2002, a heavy dark wind storm knocked over the tree directly outside Ms. Ettinger’s print studio – seeming a tiny but disturbing anniversary echo.
–Emily Brown’s work will remain on exhibit at Gallery Joe until Dec. 20.
