Oh, this is a COOL piece! I don't know how you get your creative ideas -- but I'm a bit envious!
:-) Love the step-by-step, too.
gorgeous!
Interesting process and beautiful result.
Gorgeous work, Belinda.
very, very beautiful. thanks for sharing the production process too.
oo, how awesome to see your process! great work! what is it you're using to pull the ink away?
thank you for sharing the process and the write up too. This piece is gorgeous and has me itching to try it out the method.
I've made one of the other kind - etching, acid wash and then a print. Made quite a mess of it as it was my first.
Wow, stunning! And great to see what goes into producing it.
Your artwork is really unique. The technique you used makes your artwork stand out more
I stumbled upon your site one way or another....and checked out all of the painter a day links...lots of dedicated creative energy... What a nice life... The California sun and watercolor painting... I have a new project that will be on line this week that ties in to creative momentum... Actually an old project that I am reviving to get the most out of my creative mind... Stop in and take a look... This one is geared more for artists who do not have the Luxury of working on thier art Full Time.... At least not yet!! ....It may be contagious!!
Wow! How interesting and beautiful. Thank you for explaining the process. I finally get that you're not engraving on the metal (something that's never appealed to me) and now I'm really interested in giving it a try. Is a press required or is there a way of doing it without spending a lot of money on equipment? Do you recommend any books on the topic? I tried to find some books on printmaking at the library today when we took a lunchtime walk at work, but ran out of time before I found any.
Wow! I haven't done an etching since 1979-80!! I miss the process. Nice job!
