Mono print series

This is the first project in my intro to print making class.  The assignment was to create a series of 5 prints that depict the artist.  On critique day my teacher told us to create an additional 6th print (What is this some reality T.V. show?!?!).  My theme was about my love for the idea of freedom that pirates have, and how the adventures and the memories are the most valuable.  The gold and loot come and go, but the adventures stay with the pirates till death, which are the real treasures.  I believe that that is the ideal that I work for, not necessarily in the same context, but it's my experiences in life that I value most.

#1   "In my head"
#2   "Falling out"
#3   "Land ho!"
#4    "New paths appear"
#5   "Adventures"
#6   "Out again!"
This series wasn't very successful, but I think it came out decent for my very first printing experience!  I think the most successful  prints are my first 3 and my 6th print.  Anyways, hopefully my next set of prints come out better! Collagraph is up next!
