Xenios' work is hauntingly beautiful.  Thanks for sharing, Susan.

Assuming mottling is a choice for him, he's made it well.

Rest assured there are other possible aesthetic options with polymer as well as copper.  I've never bought into the  "make it work for you" rationale in the face of technical challenges.

Thanks for the URL, Susan.

BTW I really appreciate both Jon Lybrook's and Strange Ross'
websites on polymer gravure...link to Ross' is at bottom of
Jon's.

The current issue of B & W magazine has a feature on Andrew
Xenios and his copper plate photogravures.  His website is
http://www.andrewxenios.com/

Interesting to see those gravures, especially in light of
our own problems with mottled areas...
