This print was created from my love of Bonsai (also a hobby of mine).  This print
is one of two prints I’ve done based on my teacher’s trees.  The etching print expresses
the flowing nature of his trees and off symmetry of the sculpture composition. To
make an etching print you cover the plate with ink then remove the surface ink leaving
the ink in the etched area; i.e. intaglio process. This allows the artist to create
detail lines, various textures and a look of age to the resulting print.  This print
is one of currently ten different trees each with it’s own story to tell. The hope
is that the viewer of these prints get the feeling of tree and/or the excitement
of Bonsai; a living art.
