this is a 3 block linocut print of a sunflower - it has evolved since this and i think i want to print it on blue paper (like the sky) instead of white and the dark layer block has been further carved to be heavy mostly in the center...it's coming around...i also have to learn to be patient as a second layer block ALWAYS prints better when the first layer has completely dried :) ...same with the 3rd layer block!

this will eventually be the imagery i submit for "home" in the art house | scavenger project. for most of my life i never felt like i was home or knew what home meant, but for a number of years now, i have represented home (for me) with a sunflower...i'd love to travel the world and live in other places, but my origins will always be the midwest...
