Mountain Melody

Beschreibung

This woodcut print started from an oil painting I did in 2003 and then a pencil drawing. I changed the time of day to a nocturne and added the gibbous moon. The primary challenge for me was to create the effect of fog in the valleys. I did this by selectively wiping the block each time a different color was printed. This made for an extremely time consuming process that resulted in each print being unique since I could not wipe the block the same way two times in a row. Its not the first time I’ve done this but it is certainly the most complicated print like this I’ve done.
