I'm rewatching Akira, and I forgot just how dead the people in this movie who get killed get. Like they're always the *most* dead.

This is a really really funny thing to put in a woodblock that you have total compositional control over.
That's fantastic. well done Toshikata

Haven't been that good at posting on here, but here's a few prints from my sea collection.
I was feeling quite creatively stuck at the start of the year so decided to give myself a theme and stick to it, and it definitely helped with removing a bit of pressure, and to just enjoy making :)

printmaking experiment.
photographic decalcomania.
A photograph crushed in a printing press.
The result is a very weird stone-like apparition, quite craggy and rocky on top, but textured with impossible black rivulets and wrinkles.

printmaking experiment.
decalcomania.
a photograph printed on the wrong material, on plastic, then forced through a printing press.
The result is an explosion of patterns and colours.
It's part of my collection of stone-looking things, though this one is very far gone. very deteriorated.

a small thing on a big dark field.
very strange.
could charitably be referred to as looking like a small white stone.
I mean, what else could it be right?

This one's different again.
A white and brown stone-shaped thing, riddled with strange dark tributaries, lies in a muddy brown and blue field.
The whole gravity and physics of the scene is questionable: Unreal.
Experimental printmaking. Photographic decalcomania.

stone-like form in a dark, moss-like field.
the result of my own private little printmaking experiment. 
One of a long series of white stones. This one  looks broken; smashed on one side. quite nice I think β™₯️

colourful, very texturally detailed artwork which almost depicts a scene of two white rocks in a brown-geeen soup of slime.
The secret truth is, this image was generated by crushing a photograph in a printing press. it's weird printmaking

#printmaking experiment. It looks like an egg-shaped white stone in the dirty mossy ground.
The moss and dirt, as always, is strange looking. It teams with coral-like nodules and growths.
A similar technique was used by surrealist painter max ernst to generate odd environments, except I use an improperly printed photograph and an Albion printing press where he used oil paint and a sheet of glass.

An anomaly for this early on in the "strange stones" series.
A very weird and unreal image.
What might have been a smooth white stone is being dissolved and invaded by wet rainbow growths.
This was an image generated physically by an experimental photographic printmaking process, akin to decalcomania. shout-out Jungkook.

Large, white, irregular stone, weirdly smooth, lying in a wet and spongy bed of moss or algae, or something green and slimy and growing.
Unreal.

Figurative decalcomania.

This one's particularly weird.
An unreal stone-like entity exists in an earthy field of mud-like and moss-like stuff.
That's as certain as things get around here.
Unlike the other stones so far in this series, this one's surface is not smooth and white, but instead is a twisted, fractal, green root-like texture.
It all started as #photography, but then I did some #printmaking to it. Or, at least, I used a printing press to explode the original photo anyway.

a white, shield-shaped stone lies in a field of green and orange growths.
it's surrounded by other stoney anomalies. it's all very odd looking.
The result of experimental photographic printmaking, in which a landscape photo is printed on plastic and obliterated in an Albion press.

A large, wide, lumpy stone sits lodged in a shallow bed of unusually dark green moss-like goop.
This composition was generated semi-randomly in a printmaking experiment in which a liquidated photograph was compressed in a printing press, obliterating the original image.

'least that's what it looks like; the reality of the scene is kinda vague, as always.

what appears to be a small white stone surrounded by green and orange mossy-stuff.
below the white stone, a large green stone looms.
we'll see it much later.
