Buck Litho Print Progress...

Making progress on this Litho Print... here are progress shots of each layer as i printed it...


 Not happy with it AT ALL.... having issues with registration, and my black layer masked my bright colors, making the candles and fire basically invisible.
....will be reworking....






In Progress Mono Prints

Working on a series of Mono prints in my 2d Special Studio. Discussing the issues of Racist Cartoons....




Artist Statement (full)


"We grew up tough, we grew up quick. We thought we knew the ones we grew up with. Not all is to be trusted, no one acts how they feel. I remember a time when everything was as it seemed. Amongst foul mouths and hungry stomachs new ideas were planted. Through a strange mixture of compassion and disgust these ideas were nurtured. They fed off of negative energy, misfortune, and scornful behavior. Eventually these ideas became much too powerful to contain. As they spill, I catch them with my canvas."

Finished two tone Woodcut
