Re: gum prints on gessoed aluminum



Have to agree with Chris here. I'm on a fast DSL connection, but these files seem to take forever. I finally gave up on viewing this one, but would love to see it.

up close it is pretty clumsy, but viewed across the room it takes form
like an impressionist painting. If you squint at it, it almost looks
sharp.

Amazing thing, gum! Even failures can be nice.

Yup Keith, I like this one.

My failures have ended up being my faves because they become not so precious, and then I can mess with them and not feel bad. Then I'm freer and more creative.

I give you the award for alternative substrates...

PS Any chance you could make your file sizes smaller? When I try to view them on the web they take a couple minutes, and that on DSL.
