Thanks so much for the support @manouche! You should definitely look into printmaking. Intaglio is unfortunately too complicated to do at home, but I’ve been looking more into printmaking with linocuts, which can be done with cheaper tools at home.
I’ve never been to the Escher museum but would love to go someday! He’s been one of my favorite artists since I was a kid.
I did a linocut workshop recently with Joelle Jolivet and it's super fun! I feel like the style is suited for children's books so it'll be interesting to see how to work with that. You should show us your experiments with it!
Ahh, you would love the Escher museum, then. On the list for 2018, maybe? ;)
