Stirring OOlongfirst inked plate
A new year brings about a brand new venture. An etching press, tools, inks, copper plates, etc. All the goodies a girl needs to branch out and explore. All that remains to be seen is the brute force necessary behind the scenes. The incising on the copper plate is no joke - a definite labor of love.
I'm finding my own way through the engraving maze and it's really quite exciting. I'll post images as they are completed (there is quite a bit of trial and error involved). Here's the set-up in a unused pristine condition.
