Pasiphae Etching (state 3)
Tuesday, March 25th, 2008
Here is the 2nd state. Not much different from the 2nd state (not posted) - just another pass on the background aquatint. I think I’m going to take a break from these and finish some woodcuts I have started. I am planning at least 2 more Minotaur related etchings.
A few weeks ago I drove up to Green Hill Center in Greensboro to see the Bill Fick curated show PRINTED! It was great, you can read about it here. The intaglio stuff was pretty incredible. Lots of mezzotint. Seeing all that was inspiring, but makes me think I should stick to woodcuts for a while! It was great to see so many interesting and accomplished printmakers from NC represented. I wish I could have made the opening.
