This past week has been a flurry of demos and planning, but I'm finally starting to see the fruition of all those thoughts! Last night I begun to work on an intaglio plate of a mortar and pestle. I etched for two minutes, stopped out some highlights, put my plate back in the acid tank...and forgot about it. I guess that's what I get for trying to be SUPER productive and engrave while I wait. Thankfully, a two step etch is all that was required for the assignment, but I think I'm going to try to scrape and burnish out some variations in the middle anyways.
Intaglio is a big change of pace, but I'm excited for it!
