In his long history of printmaking Carroll Dunham has developed a method to translate his graphite drawings into etchings utilizing traditional techniques such as soft-ground and aquatint. In "Negatives," Dunham returns to a familiar subject, the bathing woman and the voyeuristic male, depicting both in white ink on a black background. Further consideration is always given to the paper, in this case a blue watercolor paper serves as a base and accentuates the white highlights in the print.
