Ooooh a secret!

All rolled up in a soldered glass vial! The page is from a 1869 dictionary page, but I won't tell you what it says because--it's a secret!

From the Getty Garden

Pomegranates

Etched copper

Another experiment.  Having lots of fun!

Etched brass

Created the resist using a rubber stamp and solvent ink--I think the unique background texture is because the ink didn't completely cover the brass...

Etched Metal Sheet

Etched nickel-silver--first experiment with etching!

iDroste app

Very cool, isn't it? I took a picture of the clock we have over the mantel, and then used an app called iDroste, which turns the picture into a spiral. There are sliders for choices like iterations and centering and transparency--would have loved to have something like this when I was teaching geometry and trig!
