Again this semester in printmaking, I am working off from the same set of plates the entire semester, continually trying to explore new possibilities offered by the image. These were pulled after the first trip through the acid baths with no aquatint applied yet. There are three plates, and the chine colle is applied at varying places in the plate printing order. I managed to get this image accepted into the All Student Juried Art Exhibition which gave that little pat on the back we all need now and then.

Congratulations on the exhibition. These first prints are wonderful. Is your narrative a continuation of the global warming/ecelogy theme?
Hi Nels,
Congrats on getting your work selected for the show. I also read on the UWL website that you received the James Quillin Art Award. Good going! I also received that award as well.
Nels, I miss you. I now owe you TWO prints. One I think you'll like because we've both been there. The other is one to contemplate for a while.
These prints are fantastic. A lot of the time prints look weak on the internet, but these are amazing. I'm so glad to have known you since baby hood because these are so well developed and solve all the problems you were having back then!
Congrats Nels,
the chine cole works really well in these
