Monotypes

 I've been doing a bunch of monotypes recently. My procedure involves rolling ink onto a copper or plexiglass plate, scraping away the ink to create white or halftone marks, and running it through an etching press, printing onto dry paper. "Toast" also has some marks added to the paper after printing. 

Toast

Kafé Kafka

When I Take My Tiger To Tea

Shuffle

Rembrandt etchings copies

 I've been doing these little 3" high pencil copies of Rembrandt etchings. 

Christ Preaching

The Triumph of Mordecai

Christ Among the Sick

It's such a good way to really see into the work, from the large compositional elements to the tiny details.

Under Pressure: A Printmaking Exhibition

 My etching "PCC Memories" will be included in the upcoming show "Under Pressure: A Printmaking Exhibition," to be held at Workshop13’s ArtWorks Gallery, 69 Main Street, Ware, MA.

There is a flourishing printmaking scene in the area, so I'm looking forward to a great show.

De Chirico on Wason Ave.

I've done these RR signals several times, but usually in the morning, looking west. This is in the afternoon looking east, and including the oracular smokestack in the background.

First Snow

 Woke up to our first proper snowstorm this morning. It wasn't very much snow but enough to frost this gnarly tree and bring out its undulating wavelike properties.

Another monolith

Sketched over two 30 minute sessions at the UMass Sun Wheel, plus detail work from reference photo.

This was interesting because of the variation in how the different facets took the light, affecting both the overall values and the textures.
