Lace and Patterns

Some different types of lace and patten schemes I'm debating on for the background.

Softground

I was watching the show "Say Yes to the Dress" and I stated reconsidering my background for my piece. I originally wanted to do a series of pattens in a circular design around the center image but now I'm debating on doing a softground lace. Not sure yet. Still thinking about it.

Full Size

This is the size I decided my image should be on a piece of paper that is the full size of my plate.

Status Update

I don't think my drawing is finished enough to move onto hard ground, so tomorrow instead of showing my first print I'm going to display my drawing so the class can critique it before I move to actually etching the plate.

This is the start of my image. I've got a lot of work to do but I think its coming out okay. If you have any tips or comments let me know. Thanx :)
