A bit more progress on this mezzotint tonight. Hopefully will pull a proof this weekend and see how it looks! . . . #mezzotint #print #printmaking #copper #intaglio #printstudio #printmaker https://www.instagram.com/p/BsMdjEonk4i/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11dyju0klfpf2

Excited to try out my new mezzotint printmaking work light! 💡 Typically a fabric panel is used in front of a window or lamp to create diffused light to easily see your process when burnishing and scraping the image into a mezzotint copper plate without glare. I figured why not combine the screen and light, using an Ikea frame a set of LED lights, plus some 3D printed bits! Modeled up the grey pieces in @autodesk fusion 360 and printed using @matterhackers Pro “tough PLA” which is surprisingly strong! I’ll post files eventually! . . #printmaking #mezzotint #3dprinting #copper #intaglio #print #artist #3dprinted #matterhackers #artstudio #printstudio #diy #artistsoninstagram #howto #fusion360 https://www.instagram.com/p/BsJnGBon8lt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ome2y6h7qhqi

New studio tour in 4 pictures. Still need to get some art on the walls, and get the CNC router up and running, but I kind of like the Print Hospital vibe it has 🤷♂️ . . . #printmaking #printmaker #art #artstudio #artistoninstagram #print #printstudio #printsnotdead https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo2VBwElR0L/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cesjxoo04x71

Picked up this tin at an antique shop a few weeks ago. Turned out to be the perfect size for a little kit to work on print plates away from the studio! 3D printed the insert to hold my most used tools. 🤖 #printspotters #printmaking #mezzotint #intaglio #3dprinting #vintage #artistsoninstagram #3dprinted #matterhackers

Spent the first 30 minutes at the studio trying to learn how to better sharpen my tools for these small details. Shout out to @mcclains.printmaking.supplies for a great guide on their website, picked up some good tips. Now I need to get this block finished! . . . #woodcut #woodworking #blockprint #printspotters #megaprintmakers #print #art #reliefprint #relief #woodtools

Feeling pretty good about how this edition is turning out. A lot of carving left to do on the key block layer, and tearing the prints down to size and this one will be done! . . . #woodcut #printmaking #workinprogress #megaprintmakers #printspotters #art #print

Started as a quick project to turn a vintage film tin into a pinhole camera. That was Tuesday... . . . #3dprinting #3dprinted #camera #pinholecamera #fusion360 #3dmodeling

Sometimes you have to fight each and every print, ending up with 20 that are as far from what you want as can be. Stew about it for a few days, drag yourself to the studio, get different paper, mix more ink and then start all over to get what you want! . . . #woodcut #printmaking #blockprint #printmaker #ink #reliefprint #print #art #artistoninstagram #color
