Did I already mention that I was rejected from the UNM printmaking program? Because I was devastated. I’ll move to another school next year - not sure where - but that means no more blocks like these until then. PRETTY bummed. I hope I finish this one in time, at least. #art #drawing #wip #workinprogress #print #printmaking #relief #reliefprint #reliefprinting #woodblock #carving #fauxframe #retablo #putti #putto #angels #sacreligious #hermaphrodite #intersex #transgender #crucifixion https://www.instagram.com/p/CqQ0cymPLAf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here’s the faux frame completed for my latest piece. I’ve been using a handheld dremel for the finer lines - I hope I cut deep enough this time! #art #workinprogress #wip #print #printmaking #relief #reliefprint #woodblock #woodblockprint #fauxframe #frame #border #putti #putto #angels #angel #cherubs #cherub #skulls #retablo #altarpiece https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn5KOFqScoi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Haven’t curated them yet, but I’m running through my edition of “The Temptation”. Hoping to have around 25 before I destroy the block. #art #printmaking #reliefprinting #woodblock #print #blackandwhite #thetemptation #temptation #adamandeve #eve #paradise #lucifer #angel #devil #demon #satan #satanic #satanicart #fauxframe #dürer https://www.instagram.com/p/CcEENEXP0iP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finished the dog, but now what? Not totally happy with the dog’s face. Not sure if I want to add some fabric on the bottom right. Might print it first and see how I feel about it. #art #workinprogress #wip #printmaking #reliefprint #fauxframe #spooky #creepy #dog #carving #flexcut https://www.instagram.com/p/CaNk-XXvTep/?utm_medium=tumblr

Working on my next lithograph. This one is manire noire, which is kind of like mezzotint, plus it’s reductive, so hopefully I’ll do well and actually like it. #art #drawing #workinprogress #wip #printmaking #manirenoire #lhommequirit #themanwholaughs #victorhugo #gwynplaine #fauxframe #creepy #horror https://www.instagram.com/p/CNQjg9fnnCz/?igshid=h23nzzcmf37b

Done with this. “The Man Who Laughs”. I really should step away from markers and into watercolors. #art #drawing #penandink #marker #artlinepen #micronpen #tombowdualbrushpens #lhommequirit #themanwholaughs #pattern #patterns #fauxframe #creepy https://www.instagram.com/p/CLLdK9Ult2B/?igshid=18vrq3vsnguo3

It’s still going well. Just have to finish the background, then I can etch it!

I’m going to take a day off from this to see if I want to add any more lines, because right now I just want to be DONE with this. Happy Birthday to my brother, to whom this is going. #art #drawing #penandink #pendrawing #artlinepen #micronpen #pentelbrushpen #legendofzelda #thelegendofzelda #legendofzeldaocarinaoftime #thelegendofzeldaocarinaoftime #link #ganon #ganondorf #fauxframe #nintendo #nintendo64 https://www.instagram.com/p/CCCogQxp4-4/?igshid=12z7lmuu3c5fb

Finished the frame (for now). Now onto the main part! #art #drawing #sketch #wip #workinprogress #fauxframe #frame #legendofzelda #nintendo #legendofzeldaocarinaoftime #penandink https://www.instagram.com/p/CBpIj_hJH3x/?igshid=5lmo2093f5xl

Finished the frame finally! Now onto the meat of the image. I might have to rush it a bit to meet the end of the semester. #art #arthistory #print #printmaking #relief #reliefprint #reliefprintmaking #woodcut #woodcutprint #frame #fauxframe #putti #putto #cupid #angel #angels https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Qv0ILFbHd/?igshid=6n1is68zaq5y

Here’s my last print for a while. I didn’t get to finish the block before the semester ended, so I’ll finish whenever I take another print class so that I can print it - maybe in a year. It’s the Temptation with Lucifer and Eve and, yes, Lucifer has a vagina. #printmaking #art #woodblockprint #woodblock #workinprogress #wip #relief #reliefprintmaking #lucifer #satan #eve #biblical #temptation #paradiselost #fauxframe #putti #angels https://www.instagram.com/p/B7NB3T_JaY-/?igshid=1q5q0uc3w0da6

Proofed this little guy. I want to work on the wings more, maybe add more of whatever is dripping from their hands. I prefer the stiffer ink (darker), but I’ll have to buff it more. Any thoughts on a title? #art #printmaking #proof #print #intaglio #aquatint #coffin #spooky #fauxframe #angel #devil #demon #lucifer #satan #rebelangel #fallenangel https://www.instagram.com/p/CjTcj1mvzRA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here’s the finished version of this print, “Vehicle of War”. Did my best to only blend-roll the center, and did metallic gold acrylic paint and ink on top in a few spots. I look forward to doing a companion piece to this later. #art #printmaking #reliefprinting #woodblock #dog #ornate #fauxframe #satanic #apocalyptic #satanicart https://www.instagram.com/p/CbDgQtVPArb/?utm_medium=tumblr

Working on my next lithograph - this time on stone. Hopefully I don’t bungle this one too. #art #drawing #lithography #printmaking #workinprogress #wip #putti #putto #angels #lucifer #satan #devil #fauxframe https://www.instagram.com/p/CLuI0snFU22/?igshid=1n7qz3ylkoapi
