This sinister Temple Guard was created using a drypoint needle and carborundum powder on a metal plate. Yes, he does resemble some stoney faced man waving from the garden gate, wearing nothing but a buttoned shirt, but the temple behind him, and the mediterranean vegetation clearly define him as a temple guard.
Aluminium plate, drypoint, carborundum,
waterbased Caligo etching ink on Somerset etching paper. 2009.
