PRANCER

Here are the 6th and final colors.  It is a leafy sea dragon I have named Prancer.  Overall I loved the process.  I used gomuban from McClain's instead of linoleum.  It is much easier to cut and does hold a fine line.  It only comes in one size so working larger than 11.75 x 15.75 wouldn't work.  But it is still a nice size for most of my typical prints.  I am already contemplating my next print...

  1. This is really beautiful - love the orange and the blue together. And you really captured the flowing leafyness of these kinds of seahorses. Beautiful!

  2. Wendy,
    Jeff sent me pics of Prancer. Nice work. A year ago I was contemplating doing a sea dragon in glass. When looking at ocean bottom pics to get a feel for the elements surrounding the seahorse which would further imply motion, I came across a pic of a blue ring octopus an did that instead of the seahorse. You seem to have capture that "fluidity" of implied motion that I was looking for in your design and the interaction of the colors. Sweet job.
