Vacation, en route to California, driving through Oregon. A hot August day.
Driving fast…highway speed…the scenery outside was ribbons of colour: the blue of the sky, the pale gold of the sun-bleached grass cut through by a belt of green, and then the deeper gold of more, and longer, dried grass.
Impossible to snap a picture so, sketchbook on road-shook knees I jotted down a quick image and made some notes. And that’s where this print was born.
A nine-colour limited-edition reduction linocut, carved and printed by hand from a single block, each colour printed individually.
Every print in this edition is unique; minor variations are possible and are the result of the process by which it’s made. Colours may vary slightly depending on your monitor.
