From drawing to plate

the year of the bear

the year of the doe

The doe series were developed during the 2008.
the most important changes are the use of soft ground techniques to get a pencil quality in the final print and the use of Okawara paper as a surface for this image.
Hybrids are interesting subjects of my art work, since they different qualities are put together, to give human qualities to animals and give animal qualities to humans.

the year of the transition

The doe series was created after I moved to Austin. First I still was inspired in the wolfish world. I moved to Sunset Valley, in South Austin. Every morning there was a herd of deer in front of my home and I decided they should become the main characters of my art work. In these series, hooves and paws get together. But deer are coming soon.
