Mt. Tamalpais Linocut Print

I feel lucky to be able to see Mt. Tam everyday, including at the end of the day as the sun sets over the Pacific. I love seeing it from different angles and in changing weather conditions as you travel through the East Bay, Marin County and San Francisco.

Here's a new five-color linocut print - the second in a series (the first Mt. Tam print). This limited edition block print is made partially by the reduction method where the same linoleum block is used to print multiple colors in the print. After a color is printed on the paper using my etching press, more of the block is carved away for the next color. The print can never be replicated because the block has been carved away during the creation process. Two blocks were used for this print.

Two New Winter Linocut Prints

Here are a couple new winter linoleum block prints:

Both linocuts were made using the reduction technique and have two layers of color. I'm thinking of calling the top print 'Last Run' and you might notice the chairlift above the mountains and tree line. With two small kids, I haven't gotten a chance to ski or snowboard lately - oh, I miss it! Snowshoeing has taken their place in recent years. Speaking of skiing, yesterday, I got distracted online (surprise, surprise) and saw a photo of the Dalai Lama riding a chairlift, and something about it - the incongruity of it all - was a total joy. There's an accompanying story on Slate, about his experience seeing skiing for the first time. Good stuff.
