Week 14 Woodcut 19 For real


Ok I got back from Chattanooga and did this in one day, this is another one that would really benefit from the multiblock treatment , and maybe in afew days I'll get around to it in the meantime this is done 30" by 20 " like all the rest....

Week 14 Woodcut 19- REJECT


Ok this was supposed to be woodcut 19 , I was trying to hurry to get this done early as I was going to Chattanooga for an Outlaw Printmakers show last weekend, but I kept making bad cuts and couldnt ever salvage the shaky drawing. in the end i decided to print it just to show that I'd been working. the response ended up being favorable enough for it so maybe later I'll go back and work it up into a color woodcut and see if I can save it until then this has been rejected....

Week 13 Woodcut 18


Ok , heres the story on this one, I made this image originally for Yeehaw Industries they ended up using it for a tshirt graphic. they still have the original block, so i thought I'd just pretty much do the same thing over again so I could use the block in my installations. I had tried to develop it into more of a narrative image than the first attempt, I was gonna make it a swamp scene i had a standup bass playing rabbit in there plus the mouse and even had a couple of turtles, but i screwed up some of the imporatnt cuts and ended up just cutting all that junk away... but I do think I'm gonna do a block with just the rabbit now ..... anyway here it is. ( 20" by 30" just like all the rest

Week 13 Woodcut 17


This one has been finished since last sunday I think, I had posted on facebook, it didnt get a lot of comments or likes. Maybe it looks too much like a rebel flag for some people , or maybe it it's just not that good. either way, it's done and I've moved on to the next woodcut anyway again it's 20" by 30"
