Monotypes - The Crow Series

My love affair with Crows continues with this monotype series. I am endlessly fascinated with these intelligent, social birds. I'm lucky to have a few that hang out in my neighborhood. I often see them hanging out on my neighbor's roof while I'm working in my gardens- I like to think they're keeping an eye out for me.

Each monotype is a unique, one-of-a-kind print. The background layers are made without the use of a press, then the crow linocut is printed on a press. Even then however, I am manipulating the ink after it has been printed.
