This treefern grouping is up behind my house here.

I have used this particular theme for a sketch and also for this etching. I really like the blue ink for this etching -
it has a soft feel about it that goes well with the subject.

I took a course in etching at the Waikato Society of Arts in Hamilton and this study of the Mamaku Cyathea medullaris is one of the etchings I did on that course. I really enjoyed grappling with a new medium.
