I have been waiting for you to finish this print, but now I’m thinking maybe it is finished. Hard to tell with reduction printing.

The deep perspective of this image is quite beguiling. The botanical theme continues, I like the way you are illustrating the organic origins of the print. Where to next I wonder?

Thanks for letting us watch.

It's an issue I'm wrestling with right now. The 2 prints so fare are beautiful to look at. I hope you can post them so we can see them straight on. Oh, and thanks for the demo. No rice paste? No goma-zuri?<br/><br/>Richard Stockham Mike, I am wondering why you seem to have settled on 8 impressions for these large prints, since you are now automated, and you did twice that many or more reduction ‘plates’ when you were doing the nudes.

Yep, I'm still slowly trying to work my way towards producing some cnc routed prints of my own. Mike, if the wood is walnut veneer, what is the core made of?

I'm trying to set up a print shop, and I am trying to figure out how to build things like light tables, drying racks, flat files.... But that's just baby stuff next to what you have done. Thanks for videotaping so much and posting it for other printmakers to oogle at. Mike,

I lived in Northern New Mexico for several years, so your Aspen Grove print is bringing back sweet memories for me. Hi Mike,
