gross and ouch.

so, uh, no new prints. i started on a new aquatint and was going to print a bunch of milk bottles for a portfolio exchange in class, but i had a bit of an accident. i was cutting the paper for my many milk bottle prints, and i guess i spaced out and didn't pay attention to the location of all my fingers because i took chunk off of one with a utility knife. i've messed up one of my fingers before, but this was the first time i actually took something off. it's not really anything serious, just bloody and weird feeling, but i did get really dizzy and nauseous at one point. i surprised myself. peoples at printmaking were super helpful about it with band-aids and such. sasha and david came and picked me up from the amherst studio and fixed up finger, which was very nice of them.

we should start a little alliance of people who have accidentally gouged a chunk of their fingers off for artistic things.

something along those lines.
