Process


I've just recently completed the third piece in my process series, and have begun working on the fourth and final image. The more I work on these images the more I realize how conceptually integral the photogravure technique is to my work, and how important it is for my viewers to understand the process. As a result I've started developing an accompanying video with the gracious help of fellow artist and SCAD graduate student Laura Cleary. Above is a sneak peak of a teaser I'm planning to use as a part of the digital invitation for my thesis show, and below is the latest finished print I've made. I'm immensely satisfied with both of these projects, and I'm finally wrapping my head around what this work has become both visually and conceptually. I'll go into that more in my next post when I've completed the final layers of my last print.
