The true picture
After working on this project for about 35 years, I am growing old! At first it was those big pieces of rock that kept getting hung in my rotary tiller, when I plowed my garden. Later it was the exercise that I needed hiking on the old roads. Do keep in mind that my printing is now hindered by what my Neurologist calls "tremors". I like the effects but, you actually do not get a true picture of the plate. If only we had the hands of the Masters that created the images! They would show us how the work should be done.
