Markmaking, response, and the idea of weight in proportion to scale are defining aspects of my current work. This print, the second print in the series, A-100, is one of the results of my response to the plate's previous image by methods of scraping/burnishing the plate, aquatinting, re-aquatinting, drypoint, softground, sugarlift, open bite, and other etching techniques.

Finally putting some sweat and muscle into your work, huh?? ;)
wow, i am impressed by how much precision -- time and concentration that must have taken
your lines create so much texture in your work. You have such patience, I am jealous.
incredible work and process, impressed.
I really like that I have no idea of the functionality of the depicted structure... or if its a structure at all. There is a definite depiction of weight, mark, and proportion and it seems to be on the cusp of what's tangible and what's abstract. Like a sort of constructed play between visual semiotics, myth, and the process of making. I really like this print.
