Words on Woodcuts

Dale's Herons

Dale's Herons
Woodcut and linocut in 3 layers 
12" x 8" (image) 
This print is a tribute to my Uncle Dale who just passed away. It was based on photographs he took of 2 herons making a nest. During his retirement, Dale traveled and volunteered at National Parks, and during his travels he took many beautiful photographs that he posted on social media. Even though I couldn't visit with him because of COVID these past couple years, I really enjoyed the photos, and making this print gave me some comfort.
