A Good Morning Visit







This morning there was a backyard birders paradise. 5 bluebirds were flitting about (unfortunately they were on the neighbors birdhouse which is slated for demolition), a golden finch stopped by with a parakeet (didn't get a picture), the hummingbirds were at it and the chickadees and cardinals were going nuts for sunflowers. Also downed a male HOSP without disturbing any of them. Great morning!

Shrimp Linocut

After seeing all the awesome linocuts out there I had to give it a try. 


I got lots of tips and input from Jonathan Marquardt. If you haven't seen his work check out his site.



There are some amazing artists out there making some awesome woodcuts and linocuts. Totally inspired.
