Re: [Digital BW] Follow-up to Tyler's slithering from the cave

2006-11-16 by john dean

When we had those black and white prints laid out in NY to judge
ink/driver differences, I guess about 6 of the guys printed the same
image using Studio Print and Piezotone quads or Cone K7 inks. They all
looked good and quite smooth, but the phrase I used at that time to
describe Tylers three prints was - Three Dimensional. Sometimes I can
achieve that in my work and sometimes I can't. That is the only thing
I could think of as a description. That comes in part from a great rip
and the knowledge to use it effectively, a great inkset that has
proven itself in galleries all over the world, but the primary
ingredients to the results of those prints was talent and experience.
You can't buy that. Tyler reminds me of my old teacher Todd Walker. He
doesn't stop till he gets to the highest level he can get to. Who said
craftsmanship was dead.
