Bhagavata Purana

Figured out what the lithography wash galaxy texture will be used for:  A print inspired by a quote from the Bhagavata Puranas: 
"His eyes are the generating centers of all kinds of forms, and they glitter and illuminate.  His eyeballs are like the sun and the heavenly planets."

Found this picture of a children's clothes market,  Using it as inspiration for the next print, human creation factory.  Hand reaching in and painting a face on one of the humans.

Printmaking Progress

 This is a print I did with Tree moss directly on the intaglio plate , most likely going to be background for some poem text.
 This is the most recent print I have pulled, Universe from an egg based on a creation myth, White ground used in the background, line etching and aquatint on a zinc plate.  I plan on watercoloring the continents on the earth and possibly some subtle colors in the background.
Pulled the black layer on this print.
