Ivy Wren

Ivy Wren
Woodblock print 13 x 13 cm

I found a mesh of ivy which had been stripped away from a wall recently, it's stems and leaves so finely woven together that it was almost like a piece of material. I used crayon studies I made of a wren last year to put this piece together. I printed the light stone colour first, then the red, then an olive green and finally a slightly lightened indigo blue.
