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

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

Prints of drawings or what? __________________ I have all the characteristics of a human being: blood, flesh, skin, hair; but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion, except for greed and disgust. Something horrible is happening inside of me and I don't know why. My nightly bloodlust has overflown into my days. I feel lethal, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip.
