We hiked a trail near the river recently and this is a close-up of an old tree stump along the path with a twig cleverly placed (naturally, not by me) within the bark.
8×7″ acrylic on matboard
This is a fresh scrape of acrylic over an old painting (with a red background), then a block print (using acrylic) over that.
When I did the last Tigerlily painting/print, the block-printing process left some nice stripes on a cat-body-shaped piece of paper I used to protect the body of the cat in the work. Today, I decided to reverse the process, using the outer paper around the cat body shape to mask the rest of the painting and leave the striping block prints in the shape of Tigerlily.
And now I will try to leave Tigerlily behind.

This is another monoprint of Tigerlily in water-based ink, dressed up with some block-printing in acrylic in the background, and some acrylic paint in the surrounding border. (More on the origin of the image is in yesterday’s post.)
