Monotype: Poker & Pepsi

Poker & Pepsi 5 x 7 Monotype, Colored Pencil & WatercolorSold
This started out as a dark field (black Daniel Smith etching ink) monotype on a copper plate, with a rushed ending before going through the press. I had planned to take a lot more ink off the figure before printing (see below), but I ran out of day.
To lighten the figure, I used colored pencils on her face and arms, and then a wash of watercolor over the background.
