This is my first ever aquatint copperplate etch, based on a vegetable I seem to mull over often. There is sure to be more to come, as I'm quite enamored with the tedious details of intaglio printing, the satisfaction of scratching metal into metal, the sweetly sour smells of mineral spirits and hardground...
Found this magic spell (i.e. 60 second unstructured word blurt) in one of my notebooks. When is a potato just a potato? C'est n'est pas une pomme de terre (pomme de terre = apple of the earth, i like that far better)... 
Today marks my last day working in the little shoe store. I am grateful and excited to start my DesignWorks internship, but I will miss giggling at the end of the day at the smartly-labeled trash heap.
