12/12/25 I want a tool that makes those fine fine engraved lines like on "Kleine katze" 
up above.
12/12/25 More at peace with the iformity of the "editions", it is just a reflection of life, decay, decay
11/12/25 Remembered the Erased de Koonig Drawing and pondered a print, on cotton rack, washed with soap and wrung out, perhaps then ironed, ghostly. Several color inks, even, unevenly erased. Yes, yes..
11/12/25 Pulled a couple prints I am pleased with already. I'm troubled by the iformity (the un-uniformity) of the prints, if they are supposed to be "editions". But that's how it is with this trash I am using! It degrades fast and that is how it is.
It has been nice to experiment but I do need to get going with the seasonal greeting!
9/12/25 Making friends with the AKUA, although I still cannot wipe the plate completely without it pulling the ink from the scratched deep lines.. Looking for magnesium carbonate but it is hard to source..
7/12/25 My online research informs me that this ink does loosen up over time, which explains why it is so soft perhaps (apart from it being a soft ink). I bought this new ink a year ago... hrrrm the hunt for magnesium carbonate starts (I do not want mag mix).
5/12/25 Great sucess with deformalizing the process, less planning, getting into the swing of things, just scratching down a tree, inking it up, printing it out, going again and getting the hand thinking instead of just the brain. Iterate, iterate, iterate..
If this is not the point of working with trash (tetra pak as matrix), then WHAT
is the point !
