I love art as much as the next guy, and sure the giant people are cool, but making boring real life shit bigger is not only a stupid fucking concept, its not art. Are baby clothes art because they are smaller than adult clothes? or vise versa? Fuck that stuff.

Drypoint: a printmaking technique of the intaglio family, in which an image is incised into a plate (or "matrix") with a hard-pointed "needle" of sharp metal or diamond point. Traditionally the plate was copper, but now acetate, zinc, or plexiglas are also commonly used. Like etching, drypoint is easier for an artist trained in drawing to master than engraving, as the technique of using the needle is closer to using a pencil than the engraver's burin.
