Finished the Sunflowers

I tried to fix the mistake of burning the back edge of the vase through the flower stems by filling the line with a wood filler (Plastic Wood). With the small size, I used a toothpick to apply the filler, but didn't do a very good job. I probably needed to fill it high and a little larger area and then once it had set, sand it flat. As I didn't do this, the filler ended up bellow the surface of the wood and didn't help fix the mistake for printing.


I printed both intaglio and relief. The prints came out well with fine detail. The grain of the wood inked differently and showed up more than I had expected resulting in several stripes across the image. I'll have to take the grain into account in future prints.


I also need to work on meshing the textures and lines. The petals could be more defined, while the leaves could be less defined.

Overall, I think it was a success.

I tend not to drop many remarks, but i did a few searching and wound up here "Finished the Sunflowers".
And I actually do have a few questions for you if it's allright. Is it simply me or does it look like a few of these comments appear like they are coming from brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing at additional online social sites, I would like to keep up with everything fresh you have to post. Would you make a list of the complete urls of all your community pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

When I originally commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and

Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Appreciate it!
