It has been a damp, cold Spring around here. Every sunny day brings people outside with a wary smile, and a glance to the sky to see if more trouble is ahead. Yesterday afternoon, after a really pleasant day, a sudden downpour appeared out of nowhere. The sun was still shining! The reward was a full rainbow in the aftermath. Another positive has been lush green lawns, and thriving plants!
I finished a new reduction block print several weeks ago, and have had all the prints hanging up to dry. The Akua inks that I use tend to stay tacky for a while if I have a lot of layers. I had been wanting to make this print, as the image has the elements that I like; stones, browns and grays, and a variety of natural textures. Below is one of the final prints from an edition of 14.
