Relief Printmaking Fall 2008
Single color, hand burnished
Linoleum block, 4"x4", on masa
~1.5 hours

This was our first assignment, pretty much an exercise in using the tools. Also this was before we were introduced to the wonders of the press itself. The grey areas are where I didn't burnish enough before lifting the paper.

You could call this image a revamp of an older one (found here: [link] ) and to a point it was. But of course this was also me learning how to use the tools. You could also say this is where the whole figure and moon theme originated from - and you wouldn't be wrong.

You might also note that the sitting figure made a reappearance later in the semester (see here: [link] ).

I really like it! It provides a good mixture of black and white..and as my mom might say, not too much negative space..This is one of my favorite pieces by you for sure :).
