Sunken Ships etching

Sunken Ships, 5in x 7in, 2 color etching and aquatint, ed. 20, 2014.

It can be estimated that there are over 3 million shipwrecks spread across the ocean floor, both deliberate and accidental. I found the possible mysteries in this concept really stimulating so that inspired me to create this print. My painting the Wanderer draws from this idea as well. The architecture elements of the ship often become part of the ocean as corals and different creatures grow and swim all over them. I used two colors in printing this etching, which is also a new development in my etching series.
