Nicky sent some very nice prints in her November exchange envelope. The bird (crow?) is a linocut. The bird is the same - but the lines around the bird are different. Maybe she printed the envelope and then did some more cutting on the plate. [Real time comment: when I checked the blog this morning, I discovered several differences in the two birds - so it is not the same plate. They are very close. It's like a puzzle to find the differences. Maybe she used the same original drawing?]
The postcard, above is a Hellbender salamander which is new to me. They are native to Missouri and breathe through their skin. Both of these are screen prints.
All three are cozy images - very appropriate for this time of year.
Here are the prints that Nicky sent in a previous envelope. I turned the kitties in all four directions and it looks good in any of the orientations.
Those are great! I sometimes try to create that graphic look, but it's never as good as the real thing.
