Aquatint Etching
AP (not yet editioned)
Etching is a long process, full of highs and lows. It can often take 10+ prints to feel a print is completed. This little print was a good reintroduction to the process.
1st slide is my most successful print🌟
2nd slide includes some monoprinting to achieve darker darks
3rd all the prints it took to get here
4th-7th detail shots
8th the first prints (lots of issues)
9th-10th the original linework
The Apology
Aquatint Etching
6” diameter

Scroll through to see where I started. This aquatint was challenging and had some textural variations that were unplanned.
Back in the studio preparing some new etchings for Good Paper, the Two Cats Gallery analog print pop-up at Two Pitchers on July 19th. I’ll be tabling and doing some print demos of small work, hope to see you there
TV Dinner 2023
The biggest and sappiest thank you to EVERYONE who came together to make this show happen and came out to celebrate with us on Saturday. 21 amazingly talented artists who put their time, energy, and creativity into creating unique and beautiful works of art that I will be dreaming about for years to come.
@laurathiessenart@derekpopple@christina.blob@eggshellpress@melnothernstudio@dadadoodles@gottooken@willy.shoals@oliverwilsonart@_sunday_daze_@jmariko16@amemei.art@happypixart@yourlocaldarrah@lorenzodelcastillo@michaelmorgansf@edieface@lifeofmegananne@potandshrooms@junyarts@bunnycalifornia@_deanmartin_@amemei.art for your invaluable partnership in putting this big silly show on. The spectacular mural, late night pep talks, physical labor in transforming the gallery space, words can’t express how much blood, sweat and tears you put into this show and I cannot WAIT for us to get to hangout, watch a movie, and not be stressing over orange contact paper or our art pieces.
Special shoutout to all of our friends and family who supported us through this sometimes stressful process. This was just about all Colin and I could talk about for the last 3 months, and every conversation and word of encouragement meant the world to us.
@twocatsgallery , Colin. We did it Joe! I’ll just express my thank you in person as I know you’d prefer it that way. I do have to say, never in my life did I think I’d find a partner willing to put 3 months of our lives into something so wild with me. Can’t wait to stay up late with you and brainstorm our next ridiculous show, maybe over a drink at Little Hill Lounge 😉
Also, if you missed the show, please don’t fret! The gallery is open every Saturday this month, March, from 12-3pm. Please stop by 1419 Scott Street AKA Two Cats Gallery 🐈 🐈⬛ and say hi!
Continuing with my Seasonal Impression series, my Summer 2022 print is finished (and just under the wire! 😉)

“Slow Burn”, 8”x10”, two plate etching.
