Another Linocut

Rosie
4" X 6" linocut
2008

Rosie was the sweetest little Norwich Terrier I ever knew. She lived a charmed life with Nick and Jenny in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Brooksville, Maine. It just wasn't nearly long enough. We all miss Rosie desperately, including Kinsey, who inherited Rosie's car throne and doesn't quite know what to make of it.

Notice Kinsey's Red Sox leash. Uncle Pete and Aunt Pam sent it to her from spring training camp in Florida. Kinsey watches the Sox play every night from Tom's lap. She's partial to Manny Ramirez who just topped 500 homeruns this week! Go Manny! Go Sox!

My authentic Japanese carving tools -- sharp as Samurai swords -- arrive today! I'm going to tackle another woodblock immediately. Just hope I don't cut off any fingers in my carving zeal!

The lines of this woodcut are pleasing. What you like about making woodcuts compared to pen and ink drawings?
