Long-eared Owl in Intaglio Dry Point

7x5 with 4x3 artwork on Strathmore printing paper using watercolor with ink. In an Intaglio dry point process this owl was created. Last night I prepared him by creating with a sharp tool, lines on plastic, coating with ink to fill the lines, rubbing off, then running thru a Sizzix embossing machine that acts as a printer. Two prints were made and this one is the second, or ghost print. Using a #1 rigger or script liner brush, colors were added wet on dry today. Ref photo was from Birds and Blooms magazine.
