    good luck with the job prospect! i hope if you get it that means we get to see more work!!!

    Sorry didn’t mean to assume you didn’t know what mezzotint was. More often than not other artists I talk to have no idea what it is.
    Thank you! I post a lot of my work on Instagram and I have a website too if you want to look at more images. @jmcrook and www.crookstudio.net

    This thing is like 97% done now. Just gotta tweak some fine details, give it some highlights and call it good. 2’x4’ woodcut relief print

    Could you use snake skins somewhere in this process - just to give or help with patterning ?

    I have in copper etching processes before actually. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d74ed2b1ea.jpg
    With woodcuts it’s entirely manual. I mean you could program a cnc router or laser cutter to cut a design but I like to get my hands dirty, I need some physical feedback from the work that I’m making
