After looking at these prints side by side, I realized how closely related they are to Warhol's work. For example, Warhol took an image and created a screen for printing. Over and over he printed the same image using different color combinations and placement. The result, several different prints, all resembling the original picture, but tackled in a multitude of different ways (see Marilyn paintings). My oxidation prints are much the same. I began with similar looking prints, and changed them into two totally different peices using the same materials. The outcome is two completely different pieces that began the same.
