As a member of Portland Maine's Pickwick Independent Press, I am working on a 4x4 foot wood cut for our little shin dig in September. For our "Block Party" the print shop has rented a steam roller and we will make an edition of 3 prints on canvas using the steam roller along one of our city streets! To Sponsor our event- where your $300 donation will award you a large print- check out this link. Above is my block after its first day.
My print making experience includes, etchings, silk screens, and lithos but never wood blocks, although it's always been a huge interest of mine. So why not jump in and learn on a 4x4 ft block!? The image I am working from is one I took of an installation I completed during grad school "Scarecrow Bride". It's a detail shot of a dead bird cast in an illuminated ball of resin. See the original image below. I will continue to share my "in progress photos" as well as the final edition, so stay tuned! To see and purchase my prints- visit my print shop on etsy Graydaysprintshop.
