One lantern, one path,
oak leaves falling like small gold coins.
Someone left the cottage light on.

@emilygraykoehler.comI got up early to print the 4th layer (green) on my newest reduction woodcut, Prairie Fire, before opening the studio gallery for the day. This print is really starting to come together. One more layer to print and I think those monarchs are really going to pop!

@pixoate.bsky.socialPhoto to woodcut print, online. Edges and tone turn into cut lines, and the density of directional marks shapes light and form. A striking look for posters and covers.
@livraineysmith.bsky.socialIt's worth noting that while have 7 of Wunderwerck II (see photo above) available, I'm down to just 3 of Wunderwerck I. #woodcut #art xylographilia.etsy.com/listing/9698...

@johnnythin.bsky.socialSome #woodcut fun from ‘Dialogus Creaturarum’, an early printed book in Clare College library: “a wolf cajoles an ass into a feat of carpentry whose logical conclusion of bringing the ass to earth, an easy prey, was distressingly marred by the latter's crushing of the plotter in its asinine descent”
