I had a 36” x 44” sheet of Micarta since I was in grad school. I never used it in all that time and thought it was perfect for another large collagraph. I haven’t been doing much etching since I don’t have any acid in my home studio. Coronavirus is still a factor so I don’t like going to a fully equipped studio. I started work on the plate in February 2021 and didn’t take the first proof until June. Finally making some progress on it and it’s the beginning of August.
