your work translates so well into printmaking. i love what you're doing so far, can't wait to see more.

I'm really interested in learning printmaking skills; I'm trying to find a teacher locally...

Thats one weird looking burqa.

That was partially the idea - with all the madness going on here in Switzerland because of that law against minarets and that insane paranoia about anything foreign, it somehow felt appropriate. :/

Well here in Belgium we have a bunch of muslim nut jobs that think that they somehow will install a caliphate after overthrowing the present goverment. And to date they did that by calling out to prospect martyr's to kill some people. Last one to get a death treat of them today was a high ranking gay politician called Elio Di Rupo. So I'd say some paranoia is in order, the blind kind is to be avoided though. Tends to get the opposite effect.
