Plexiglass intaglio -
1st print - You can see I didn't clean the plate off well. I scratched the plexi with an old xacto knife. The ink, of course, was drying too fast as I didn't use/have any retarder. I do kind of like the "holey" look of the pear.
later prints: I used acrylic paint mixed with gel medium for this one. I like the way it is more saturated in some places. The second one is the ghost of the previous one.
Next I want to try some resist and actual painting/sketching into the paint on the gelatin.

These are great. I still have some boxes of Knox in the cupboard from when a friend was turning me on to her gelatin printing addiction a while back. This makes me want to start boiling up the water! Interesting link, too. Thanks.
You should! I plan on doing more this week once I'm all unpacked and "back to normal" from our little vacation.
