Luchador Collab-o-Mask....
I mailed out wrestler masks made of wood to various artists and asked them to paint their style in to the background of the mask. They worked out their design and returned the mask to Me and I stenciled in the details of the face.

Trying out the new lasercutter at work, I made an enlarged version of an old growth form. This is cut from 6mm black acrylic - works pretty nicely as a heat mat.
Mordancage is kind of hard to explain. Essentially, it takes your b&w image and allows you to manipulate or remove the purest black areas. You can also create these lovely 'veils' of black but again, hard to explain. Once I have a successful image, I will scan it in and show you what I mean! =)
Edit: Ah, I should probably explain what's going on, lol.
1) I placed my print (after it's been soaking in water for a bit) in the mordancage chemicals. It's essential an acid that will bleach your print.
2) The image after it's been bleached for 3 minutes. I left it in for an extra three minutes after this shot.
3) Then I placed it developer so that the grays and other tones will come back. The blacks should be visible and able to be lifted off the print.
You can either completely remove the black or you can move it around. It creates really cool effects.
This is my first Mordançage print! It is soooo sooo fun watching it transform!

Picture of Nobuo this afternoon, perhaps a bit on the over-processed side... That's definitely his favorite place and pose, though.
