Smile!

Here is my adoring dog as an etching.
It was a rough day, and I needed to draw something I care about. Her smile brings cheer to my gloom.
This is an etching done on a plastic plate - and then hand printed onto paper using classic etch printing techniques with my hand made press and water based ink.
She looks so nice, but you 'ought to see her chase them Zombies! She doesn't know which she likes to harass better, an unsuspecting cat, or a Zombie hopping walk on one leg, or even better, a Zombie Cat missing a leg!

Ka-Zar Printed atlast!


Here is the finished print of my fan re-creation of the Ka-Zar panel. All of it etched & printed by hand. I even went so far as to prick each dot individually to make sure it came out right. I only used the wheel on the blue dots in the background. This is how I spent my fourth of July weekend. See older posts to see what the real panel looks like.I also spent the fourth trying to let my dog know the world wasn't ending in spite of the scary noises!
