When the trees meet the sky.

Printmaking continued.

These are examples of Intaglio printing, using engraving marks to dig into plexiglass. Ink is then rubbed and brushed into the marks, and pressed into soaked paper so the fibers lift the ink out of the marks. A very much involved process, but extremely rewarding!
