'til it hits the ground


Okay. This guy is the sixth and final (for now) of my new Art*o*mat birds (although only five are posted here because I did the first one a while ago). As soon as I decide exactly what I'm doing with them, I'll post some pictures.

And here I am...one week into this block-a-day thing, and I've already had three problem days. On each of said problem day, I made a block, hated it and made another. Not a good sign. All three were abstract patterny type blocks which were replaced by figurative blocks. I'm a lot better at figurative than abstract, but I'll keep trying.

thanks y'all.

I just love your linocut crows, they are my absolute favourite bird...and a subject i am always inspired by...

You have captured Simplicity in your work. I admire that.
