LE Color Woodcut Surreal Figures Playing With Fire by Maria Arango

Description

Playing With Fire
2001 Woodcut
16" x 20"
Edition: 100

Block: Cherrywood
Ink: Umber/red-copper rainbow
Paper: Hand-made in Nepal - Daphne
Process: Puzzle print, each color section is scroll sawed apart, inked separately and assembled at printing
Image: A mixture of playfulness and danger, since they are wood figures playing close to fire. Perhaps an analogy to the art life I have chosen? Perhaps just a playful and dangerous fantastic scene.

Process: Woodcuts are made by drawing an image on a block of wood, usually cherry in my case, then carving out the negative spaces. After carving, what is left is a big "stamp" of the desired image. I roll ink with a roller over the woodcut, place a piece of handmade paper on the inked block, apply pressure and transfer the image on the paper.

All my woodcuts are made in limited editions, signed and numbered in pencil.
