wood block printing: eggshells



"walking on eggshells"- shown two colorways.
This particular set of prints was inspired by the song by Landon Pigg called Eggshells. I'd been listening to him a lot at the time thanks to that "I think that possibly, maybe I'm falling for you" song. And when you're trying to be creative in several outlets at the same time, sometimes your stock gets low and you have to seek elsewhere. That's how the content came about.

And this was my first attempt at wood block printing - fyi, it's not my favorite.
I don't like the rough quality, or the time and energy it takes just to carve the blocks of wood.
