Framing Option

This etching by Donna Volta Newmen from the series Bombastic Side Eye presents a striking portrait in shades of blue and gray. The figure’s head is framed by unruly, flowing hair. The sideways gaze is sharp and scrutinizing, giving the subject an air of skepticism combined with self-assured distance. The delicately drawn outline defines the face with clarity, while textures and shading add depth to the composition. A subtle lace pattern at the lower edge enhances the interplay between austerity and delicacy.

The etching is part of a series of 12 individual works.

About Etching

Originating in medieval Europe, etching became one of the most important printmaking techniques of the old masters. Using acid to bite designs into metal plates, artists achieved remarkable detail and expression.
