White House insurrection

The piano brings to mind all the black and white movies I watched as I put curlers in my Mother's hair

and the constant bombardment of printed and electronic media documenting every event —I needed moments of peace

Topography (Mini IV) Nature White House insurrectionAcrylic Paint & Woodcut Print on Gallery Wrap Canvas 4" x 4" x 1. 5" 2020 I love wood with its textures and patterns. A Dremel tool was used to carve out the natural lines in a piece of Luan wood. The wood plate started at 5ft x 18 but it wouldnt fit on the printing press. I cut off 10 which left almost 50 of printing surface. The paper used is Lennox 100, off white, 250 gsm (about 140 lb) neutral pH, acid free. I created a 6 ft x 12 ft woodcut print
