Those aren't the actual prints, they're the digital files, but thanks! I think there are prints on my Flickr page somewhere. NBW South Philly is coming along quite well - thanks to my housemate. Hope all's well with you! Thanks, Stals! Those aren't the actual prints, they're the digital files, but thanks! I think there are prints on my Flickr page somewhere.

What I like so much about wood/lead type is that it gives me finite possibility. Beyond what's in front of me there's nothing I can do {more or less}. If I have too many options {like on the computer} I can't do anything. I'm helpless. Infinite possibility makes me anxious. <br><br>That said, I am looking forward to working with my polymer plates when they arrive, just to see.

Your printing possibilities are now limited only to the size of your platen. Have fun with!
