New work/experiments…

[dirtyelbows]

Experimenting with a new structure/projection surface. This was intended to be for my Dump Bucket Aquarium in the vein of what will become my thesis work next year but for now it's back to the drawing board.

First layer of an edition for the SGCI exchange portfolio #SGCIsanfrancisco #lithograph #sgci #dirtyelbows

Another piece of home found its way to ohio! Saw this gem in Karla’s print exchange collection. Big Nose George: Wild West outlaw extraordinaire- in true Wyoming fashion, upon his death, his skull was used as an ashtray, his skin was made into shoes (on display in Rawlins), and his remains soaked in a barrel of whiskey while the doc searched for answers to his criminal tendencies. One can only hope to get as good of a send off!

Experimenting with manipulating depth of field manually through the lithography etching process. Image in left: first etch attempting to focus on a reflection with an out of focus figure behind the window glass. Image on right: final etch focusing on the forms beyond the window as the reflection moves out of focus. #pastfailuresleadtonewdiscoveries

Proof is in the printing!
