cricket & bull

Wipe...wipe...wipe....print....print....print....
My printing is improving.  
Not yet ready to set up for acid etching,
I'm still doing collagraphy but have begun to tackle drypoints.
My drypoint guidance is coming from E.S. Lumsden's The Art of Etching,
paper suggestions from knowledgeable someones 
and some very fine advice from the LinkedIn Engraving/drypoint group.
The rest of is just trial and error.
It's only a cell phone picture, but had to show it.
I'll replace all the cell phone pictures with real photos when I've got time.
Here's an up close and personal drypoint
of a neighborhood bull.
(I'll eventually get all the plates printed and posted)
