@ROman @RoxRocks86 Glad you enjoyed the anny shots!
@SKT Awesome! Love the colors.

As always, awesome shots @Jett129
The third one is my favorite!

Thanks @weftyarn A lot of cropping going on,much to the surfers dismay,as they want to see more of the wave,and I’m trying to show the action and crop into the direction that the surfer is moving. Try to imagine if there were Baseball cards for surfers,what would they look like.

Stunning shots, @Jett129
How have you edited these? This B&W profile is so unique and recognizable. I love how it makes the details such as the facial muscles of the horse pop out.
-
Thank you @weftyarn These are very edited,cropped etc. I tend to test everything I do to see how it might look in B&W,or if the color just isn’t working for me. While I have a plugin that gives me access to about 50 different analog B&W films,for this I just clicked B&W and proceeded to adjust the images accordingly.

The editing and cropping certainly didn't hurt - I love the result!
As my father likes to say: If it doesn't work in black & white, it won't work in color.

A few from my father's workshop, where we produced linoleum printed cards.
I'm 80% in front of a computer on work days and it's always refreshing, almost meditating, to produce something without any electricity involved (other than the room lighting) in my free time.Applying color to the press, the linoleum cut already prepared
As orange as it gets….
Printing Process
Printed results after 1/2 colors

It's alway "our" work (the whole family helps together), but yes, there's some favorites that i will share next time I'm at the workshop
There's a whole lot to explore.. A graphic designers dream, really.
I'm happy I make my living as an Engineer and I'm really passionate about it too,
but the hands on experience of these "older crafts" is priceless. -
printshop setup is the shit @weftyarn ! how did you come by them?

Sorry for the late reply, @steelworker
It's been quite a busy few weeks…So we found the printshop on the second market last summer and drove down 1.500km to very south of France (near Toulouse) to go pick it up and install it in my fathers workshop here in Munich.
We had to rent a really big van to transport the estimated 1.2 tons of lead. The press alone was 250kg, if I recall correctly. It was mid-summer, the sun was out and it was beautiful to drive through France enjoying the nature. Enjoyed a lot of cheese and wine too, of course.The printshop is amazing, but the memories of that trip make using it so much more special. It was truly amazing!
Do you have any favourite examples of your work to share?
