  • Hand-painted linocut

    from the book Ten Rowdy Ravens

    Edition of 40

     

    Ravens are known to have a penchant for shiny things. For this page, I gathered up a pile of bling that includes white heart trade beads and my space needle spoon.

     

    Sizes listed are of the linocut images themselves; I leave an additional white border of paper on all sides.

         

  • My linocuts are printed on cotton rag paper the old-fashioned way: I carve with knives and gouges to create my imagery in slabs of linoleum. Then I roll ink over the surface, lay cotton paper on top, and crank the block through my etching press. I repeat this process for each impression in the edition, which means: If an image is in an edition of 40, I do this 40 times! After the prints dry, I generally hand-paint them, often with many layers of color, making each print a unique work of art.
