Full v.e. of 7.
Matrix (above) and designs (left). I previously struggled with collagraphs, and wanted to explore concept alongside the aspects of the technique I struggled with. Fawn Response tackles the idea of parallels between traumatic responses and prey fauna.

Shared Temple; Desecration (3/open v.e.), akua ink on cotton paper. ($25)
My digital design (left) that I then printed out and etched onto plexiglass using a scribe. I wanted to explore shading techniques I had seen on engravings, as well as a form of content I struggle with (gore). This piece is derived from my own experiences with gender dysphoria, and the isolation that I feel within my own body.
My digital design (left), my very first print (right; top) and some extra prints as I experimented (right;bttm).
My goals with this project were to explore more texture and pattern, the concept of balance in thirds, and work with a challenging creature. My first go at a linocut was satisfying, but I felt as if I could explore these concepts further.
While I focused more on the technical skills I could improve in, I also wanted to convey a sense of solmen guardianship in the dragon!
Solus (4/open v.e.), block printing ink on craft paper. (+ full edition of 9) $30.
Digital design for my screenprinting using photo emulsion. I wanted to explore a graphic tee sort of style, utilize half-tones, and convey the expressiveness of this character.
