I don't know if I can describe for you the feeling I get when I see what you're doing here; the sharp intake of breath as I experience both delight and disbelief watching these little videos. And just the thought of dampening those huge pieces of paper... wow. Looking forward to seeing how the first print progresses. Thanks for the peek into your studio. Amazing, Mike.
