Small Dog of Power Begins Kelen WoodPrints
It's time to give my woodprints their own blog.
The Small Dog of Power will be excellent to have as my first post,
guarding the bottom end here.
That's him...
my contribution in the BarenForum Chinese Year of the Dog print exchange.
My first major Moku Hanga effort.
Thinking I would need to print hundreds to get the 60 some required, I felt this mild tempered/mannered fellow and I could get on well enough for the duration without arguments or boredom.
I DID discover an entire volume of Murphy's Laws which specifically addresses Japanese printmaking,
the laws of which I managed to follow and then successfully break,
every one of them, with the help of this fine beast....
which is, actually, part of his job AS animal of the year.
