Well, I decided to start using this again. I'm not going to lie and say I have a bunch of new artwork to put up that shows dramatic improvement, cause I don't. I'm kind of at a standstill with my traditional pieces... I haven't really produced anything this year as far as painting/drawing goes that I actually like. Right now in class I'm working on a project that involves a LOT of glitter and sequins. It's quite fun and I hope it turns out well.
So I guess for now this account will be used to practice photography and maybe a little bit of poetry will be thrown in here or there. If I do submit any drawings, they'll probably be put in scraps.
Mostly though I'll be busy getting a 4.4 this semester, haha
So close.

i want to tell you about Crisis after crisis.
but i hate to bore you.
It's an intalgio print, using hard ground and acid etching. Basically you start with a metal plate, and then the hard ground--a brown mixture that dries hard--is painted on. Once that is dry, you drop it in a bath of acid, which eats away around the dried hard ground. When that is done, you have a plate, which is kind of like a photo negative. You wipe it with ink and put it in a printing press with some paper and voila! It's a very complicated process, but it's really fun. You can get a lot of different results from it, and you can make as many prints as you want.
