Etchings from one plate thats been deteriorated in acid and printed at each stage:
If my explanation is too vague I can PM you in more detail as I want to see what people make of the work first and their reaction and what the images conjure up in thei minds.

New Work, by Martin Whatson on Feb 5, 2008 8:49:32 GMT 1, I like it. But it may need some more contrast and something is lacking in the composition. But I love the tecnique. My favorite is thishttp://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k153/OllyOllyOllyOiOiOi/DSCN0795.jpg An more photos of your work?

Hey, thanks for all the comments there helping. To explain the composition, its based on Manet's Execution of Mximillian which was spontaeneously cut up after his death so no thought was put into the cmoposition and in some way im trying to mirror that.

This sort of art stands on its own merits, I look forward to seeing more of your stuff.
