Scent of Jack Russell

This engraving was made using a hand held high speed engraver similar to those used by model makers, I find it much more like drawing than using a tradional engraving tool, the avocets in the picture below were also engraved this way, but for the mud lines a diamond dust encrusted glass engraving tool held between finger and thumb, was rolled across the surface of the copper plate so that lines of tiny pits were made, which seems to work quite well, the plate was then inked up and hand wiped, then run off on my etching press.
