- Description
- Terraced Towers depicts cell-like features with heavy emphasis on black lines. The etching is abstract and monotoned. The sketch for the plate was drawn by the artist on a digitized pad and the resulting paper printout became the basis for the original print. This process was developed by the artist and is nearly unique in the history of printmaking. One other artist, in an Eastern state, is also experiementing with the wide range of expression via such assistance.
