It kind of looks like an up close of a flower :p

to me, they have always had more of a smoke or cloud like feel to them, but im all for others' interpretations

I like the second one, makes me think I'm seeing a ball of fire streaking across the heavens.

I'm just wrapping up a printmaking class in which we learned about many major methods of printmaking while producing some of our own rudimentary examples. For the intaglio methods we did a drypoint, but I'd be negligent if I didn't say I was most interested in playing with mezzotint.

Nice :thumbsup:

You have got to try it. It is very labor intensive, the preparing of the plate with the mezzontint rocker, but the textures you can get are quite beautiful. I usually work with intaglio or drypoint. some day i would like to try lithogroaphy as well

almost looks like scanning electron microscopy images
