Vegetable Lamb

I feel bad, all I have uploaded are my prints! It's just so much easier to run to the scanner and wait five minutes than to reserve the photo studio and shoot my paintings/drawing (always poorly). I'll get on that though!

I did this print last and it is so darn simple and took  no time at all, but I love the little thing. Our class is doing a print exchange on paper that is 4"x3" and the theme is "Creature". My copper plate is about 3.5"x2.25 and I did an edition of 22 (large class!).

I liked the little guy so much I cut myself a nice big 8"x8" piece of BFK and made myself a print to take home. He is The Vegetable Lamb of Tartary. A friend recommended I look it up out of a list of mythical creatures. I loved the imagery and description of the little critter and had to do it.

 

He's just so darn goofy, I love him. I have been thinking of starting up an etsy shop this summer and selling some prints and books to keep myself busy and hopefully, make a few bucks doing it.
