I like the 2 dogs drymounting on the right side

The print itself looks fantastic. I want to like it enough to buy but kind of feel like it's a bunch of different ideas put together. Like doodles on a school folder.

Is he still planning to do something with all of those small, single engravings?
I'm not someone else.

its actually based off Brueghel's Luxuria. Not just random ideas.

Yup. Per the email (subscribe yo!):
After the show i made the decision to focus on engraving work instead of traveling painting murals. I was asked by KBR (Royal library of Belgium to collaborate with them on their Bruegel in black and white show. The show commemorates the 450 year anniversary of the renaissance master Pieter Bruegel by showing his complete print work. My work has always been strongly inspired by this golden era of printmaking so the collaboration was a perfect fit for me.

I was asked to engrave a copper plate inspired by Bruegel using the same techniques he would have used to make his print in 1558. My copper plate took three months of painstaking work to engrave with a Burin. The completed copper plate and the print is on show in Brussels until the 16th of February 2020.

This print is an important milestone for me as i've worked really hard to hone my skills as an engraver over the past few years. It's by far the most richly detailed work i've made so far and marks the beginning of a body of work i'm very excited to share with everyone.

Very excited! The detailed pictures make it seem like it would be huge. I like that it’s small but intricate.

The museum received their own allocation so not as much as you think online.
