July 20, 2021

The Tuesday Night drawing group of Santa Fe drew together online using Zoom, because of the Covid 19 quarantine.




I colored the drawings below with Petalica Paint:








UPDATE:  I laser cut the portrait above at Quelab, but it did not print well on the Tortilla Press.  Part of the problem was the dots that made up the grey area {a result of the Floyd Steinberg pattern in XnView -- Image/Conver to Binary/Binary (Floyd Steinberg)}.  The dots were too thin and high, and broke off easily when I washed the linoleum plate.  Maybe if I first converted the image to 175 DPI, it would laser cut better.




























Linoleum

I first drew on linoleum squares, then scanned and colored them in Deep Dream Generator.
