Crooked Man

I recently got to spend a day in the Portland studio of my son Marc, who is a gifted printmaker. We had a great time and under his tutelage I made my very first woodcut. It's just a toe in the water, but I hope to do more in the future.

And yes. I did just use the word "tutelage."

    This looks like it was fun to make, and it is certainly fun to look at.
