Leaves Overhead

Description

Working at a job I wasn’t happy at and feeling particulary glum one late summer day a few years ago, I left the office to spend lunch break in a small city park nearby. Sitting on a bench under a canopy of trees, feeling weighed down by gloom, I tilted my head back and looked up at the leaves above my head. The pattern of leaves and branches, with bits of sky peeking through here and there, was hypnotic and beautiful. Bad mood forgotten, I rushed back to work to sketch. That sketch is what this print is based on.

It is a multi-block print; I used three separate blocks to produce it.
