Hot Air Balloons I- Multimedia

From minouette

Carved in linoleum, and printed on variety of Japanese washi paper (kozo, or mulberry and chiyogami and katazome-shi patterned paper) and vintage sheet music, is a collection of hot air balloons in a cloudy sky at sunset. This piece employs the techniques of printmaking and collage. I am making a series of these multimedia; each one is unique. This is first in the series. Dimensions are approximately 12 inches by 13 inches (30.5 cm by 33 cm).

The balloons are inspired by some of the wonderfully elaborate balloons by pioneers of flight (or, floating, at least) like the Montgolfier brothers in the late 18th and early 19th century. These beautiful and romantic vehicles were carefully decorated and often included baskets like sea-going ships, to sail the skies.
