peacock joins the flock

The birds are multiplying.  My latest linocut is a peacock.


I couldn't resist photographing it with some peacock feathers.  It is laying on top of an old photograph in a chipped gold frame.  Something about peacocks just scream for gold to me.

Here is a close up of those tail feathers.


It is hard to tell from the photo but I used a blueish black ink.


I talk about the process here.  I might take a break from the birds for a bit and try some other subject matter.  I have a few ideas but I'll have to find my tools first.  They have gone missing which isn't a surprise when your "studio" is part of the laundry room and right off the play area.  I assume I'll find them stuffed in a shoe somewhere in the next week or so.  Wish me luck!

  5. Very beautiful! I love peacocks! I know what you mean about losing tools because you don't have a studio of your own. My "art studio" is currently in my dining room in my tiny little apartment. I hope you find your stuff soon!

    PS. I'm so glad I found your blog! I love finding other artists out there :)
