Evil Eye Lounge- print stage 1

This is the print of the previous drawing for The Evil Eye Lounge, in York. It measures 45x28.5cm, and took 3 hours to carefully draw out onto the waxed plate, then bitten for 8mins in the acid.
On saturday it will have an aquatint added, before then I'll be working/playing with watercolour on this print; Then uploading to this blog early next week. Hope it doesn't go tits-up.

I was just searching for evil eye in blogs as it is what I sell at our website and stumbled upon your post.

Just out of curiosity, is there a specific reason why it is called "The Evil Eye Lounge" ?

I run a blog on www.evileye.org in which I wrote on businesses/stores that have the name evil eye so just wondered..

Great Drawings btw! :-)

I'm afraid I don't know why its called The Evil Eye Lounge, maybe its to give it a certain taboo vibe! They also have a bistro called The House of the Trembling Madness.
