@shikashik I'm glad it turned out, now I'm curious Can you video it and up it to YT?

[shikashik]

@halfwoodpress Actually, it's her birthday present, and I don't want to spoil it. If she sees the video, it won't be a surprise anymore. But if you have an email, I can give you a photo of it. =) It's not printed yet though XD

I signed up for a drypoint printmaking workshop at a local art center for this weekend and was looking for something to give me some insight into the process. This video was very helpful -- thanks!

Thanks for the compliment - I appreciate it. I don't know what B.E.P. means-what is it? Curious. - B

man , seriousely the best video here about how it's done , i've seen workers of the B.E.P. working a press live ,and i still feel this video is more educational.
