A month or so ago I made this sketch which had me feeling like Wow this is really something, man this is one of the all timers.. And yesterday I start trying to transfer it onto a copper plate, and the hands are literally like:

definitely not a hand, whatever it is.
Like that guy doesn't even have an arm, what am I gonna do with this!

I'm rewatching Akira, and I forgot just how dead the people in this movie who get killed get. Like they're always the *most* dead.

This is a really really funny thing to put in a woodblock that you have total compositional control over. That's fantastic. well done Toshikata

Haven't been that good at posting on here, but here's a few prints from my sea collection. I was feeling quite creatively stuck at the start of the year so decided to give myself a theme and stick to it, and it definitely helped with removing a bit of pressure, and to just enjoy making :) #linoprint

The 9th strange stone I found. this one's preeetty strange..

printmaking experiment.
photographic decalcomania.
A photograph crushed in a printing press.
The result is a very weird stone-like apparition, quite craggy and rocky on top, but textured with impossible black rivulets and wrinkles.

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 19/03/2025

the 74th strange stone, that I found in that place

printmaking experiment.
decalcomania.
a photograph printed on the wrong material, on plastic, then forced through a printing press.
The result is an explosion of patterns and colours.
It's part of my collection of stone-looking things, though this one is very far gone. very deteriorated.

The 41st stone I found in that place.

This one's different again.
A white and brown stone-shaped thing, riddled with strange dark tributaries, lies in a muddy brown and blue field.
The whole gravity and physics of the scene is questionable: Unreal.
Experimental printmaking. Photographic decalcomania.

The 6th and 7th strange rocks I found in that place

colourful, very texturally detailed artwork which almost depicts a scene of two white rocks in a brown-geeen soup of slime.
The secret truth is, this image was generated by crushing a photograph in a printing press. it's weird printmaking

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 22/02/2025

The 53rd strange stone I found in that place. #art #printmaking

An anomaly for this early on in the "strange stones" series.
A very weird and unreal image.
What might have been a smooth white stone is being dissolved and invaded by wet rainbow growths.
This was an image generated physically by an experimental photographic printmaking process, akin to decalcomania. shout-out Jungkook.

The 2nd strange stone I found

Large, white, irregular stone, weirdly smooth, lying in a wet and spongy bed of moss or algae, or something green and slimy and growing.
Unreal.
Experimental photographic printmaking.
Figurative decalcomania.

the 32nd strange stone I found there.

$This one's particularly weird. An unreal stone-like entity exists in an earthy field of mud-like and moss-like stuff. That's as certain as things get around here. Unlike the other stones so far in this series, this one's surface is not smooth and white, but instead is a twisted, fractal, green root-like texture. It all started as #photography, but then I did some #printmaking to it. Or, at least, I used a printing press to explode the original photo anyway.$

The 18th strange rock I found.

A large, wide, lumpy stone sits lodged in a shallow bed of unusually dark green moss-like goop.
This composition was generated semi-randomly in a printmaking experiment in which a liquidated photograph was compressed in a printing press, obliterating the original image.

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

The 21st strange stone I found.

Large, wide, smooth white stone, surrounded by green and brown goop.
'least that's what it looks like; the reality of the scene is kinda vague, as always.

no, but thank you because I very much enjoyed learning about stonefish for a while

The 36th strange stone I found in that place.

Extra-weird shaped white stone, lying in a familiar field of green something.
This one is Miriam's favourite.

The 15th strange stone I found there.

One of my series of strange stones.
this one's almost egg-shaped, and lying in a particularly sloppy bed of abstract green gloop.
Decalcomania; Epson printer ink compressed onto yupo paper.

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

This is the 5th strange stone I found.

A small, chunky stone, surrounded by green and orange mossy forms.
The medium is decalcomania, printed in an Albion printing press.

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

(don't tell anyone, but for the purposes of searchability here on bluesky, this weird "stone" is actually just weird #printmaking)

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

This is the 14th strange stone I found in that place.

An unusual image. New-printmaking. Inkjet transfer.
In the image, green, algae-like forms surround a smooth white "stone" with a notch in the top end, almost like a natural hand-hold.

Technically the image is photographic, like a polaroid emulsion transfer, but the original photo (the tuffty weeds I posted earlier) was crushed in an Albion moveable type printing press against a sheet of Yupo paper to "generate" this new composition.
Don't tell anyone though, I'm pretending they're stones I found.

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

There, specifically amongst these tufty weeds, I began to uncover the first of my interesting stones. This photography dump has all just been context for the collection of interesting "stones" I am about to start posting. Get ready for this account to become all about weird stones for a while.

Colour photograph of weeds in a ditch. The ground around the ditch is broken and strange. Dandelion flowers grow. This is a very very important photograph for me.

But back in April of that year, when I drove out to see it, Illuma was still kept seporate from Reid Highway by a weird dead-zone: A rocky, grassy, weed-filled void, dry and parched at one end, but hydrated by a lively drain closer to the homes. Here are some photos I took there.

A black and white photo of a crow in a scraggly tree planted on the edge of Reid Highway.

Colour landscape photograph of one of the dry bits of the void/field that this chain of posts is all about..

Another colour landscape photograph of one of the dry bits of the void/field that this chain of posts is all about..

Colour photograph of the charismatic, tuffty weeds that grow along the drainage ditch that runs through the field. In the background houses can be seen on the other side of a temporary fence, and a Lagoon Blue Toyota Aurion is parked where the street ends and becomes field.

Towards the end of 2023 it unexpected inflated, growing dozens of new homes and coming to rest almost against the edge of the highway like it was resting by a river.

A series of 4 colour photographs taken from the edge of a weedy, sandy, messy field, with views of the houses that surround it.

Up above Perth's North-Eastern suburbs, along Reid Highway, there's a new-ish housing development called Iluma.

Colour photograph of a big billboard poking over the grey perimeter wall of a housing development. the sky is light blue and full of beautiful clouds.
It's #photography from #Perth australia.

I remember that poem in the twitter replies I think, but I'm afraid it wasn't me. The bird/dulcimer incident just really stayed with me.

Daniel K @danielgk.bsky.social · 23/04/2024

I played around with the idea of breaking the image apart with a solid black key-plate, but ultimately abandoned this one. There's more potential there though. One day I will go back and play more.

The same photo, but with a black pattern overlaid, which breaks it.
