I still have to complete the colored layers, but I have the key plate done :)

An old mezzotint recently completed and printed with hand dyed Chin Cole

This was my tester and came out good.
Then, when I was all set up, orginizined, and being careful to print the edition,
I goofed up the first one.
But I'm glad the rest were fine.

Some more pages from the book I am making, they may be small, but boy are they hard to make. It's definitely become a project that is a labor of love.

The proofs of 3 pages from the book I'm making 💪

Carving away a little at a time.

Congratulations!! I'm super excited to see the show!

My current kitchen set up -

I have a bad attention span, so in order to focus, I have multiple art making nests throughout my house.

The only thing popping up on my feed in politics. No matter how many times I click, "Show less of this," it's all I get. 😠 I wanna see art!

Large drawings like this feel neverending.

I love sampling all of the social media platforms ~
So here are photos from the book I made in 2023.🌟

I'm painfully optimistic that I will complete another one before 2024 ends!
