Sometimes, the crow wins.
From one block grows this multicolored image in glowing yellow, carved and then printed in straw gold, pumpkin oranges, autumn red, and night dark blue/black. Like a batik on paper, the color is printed, then the image is carved away to save it. Print, carve, print, carve, print. I like working this way, watching the image develop as I print each layer. If I start with a light color, I can add to it until all I can make is night.
Size: 7"w x 5 1/2"h

Printed on Strathmore Printmaking Paper .
I made this for a friend's autumn birthday. It's available now in my Etsy store, nevermindtheart.
