[It's about the art] Cows come home

[Kris Shanks]

Here's the final state of the cow print. I had a lot of difficulty with registration on this last color. In retrospect, I think this print would have been more successful if I'd used a separate block for the cows and tree branches. The mahogany plywood I used for the first couple colors to get the texture I wanted was difficult to print as a solid color without over-inking. I'm glad it's done, and I think it turned out OK.

I've been doing a fair amount of painting the last few days, and I'll be sharing those as soon as they're dry enough to photograph.
