"BIRDS OF A FEATHER" Original Fine Art 2-Plate, Reduction Method, Linocut Relief Print, Limited Edition of 26
*** STARTS SHIPPING on MARCH 5th, 2020 ***
“Birds of a Feather” is a two-block, reduction-method, linocut relief print measuring 13” x 11” (33cm x 28cm). From the shore, these unremarkable ‘black’ birds can be seen dotted along the California coastline on almost every rock near the shore. But, just grab a pair of binocs and you can see what cormorants are REALLY like! The brilliant colors of the earth and sea are perfectly reflected in their plumage. The green and blue iridescent feathers have hints of both the sky and sea, while a sandy patch below their chin holds hints of both beach and sunrise. And those eyes! These Brandt’s Cormorants mate for life, so the title is particularly apt.
Developed through observation, sketching, and the use of online photographic references for those hard-to-see-through-binocs details and posture.
