The blur between past and present

"I set out to print the first 20 of these. After much unplanned trial and error I ended up with a total of five good ones. It would be frustrating if it were something I didn't love doing and live to do! At some point down the road I'll print the next installment of ten or so, but this is all that I've got for now. The place I stood when I made my plein-air reference painting was north of Golconda and south of the Denio turnoff from 95 heading toward the Jacksons. There's a lonely Chevron out there where the phone gets reception, but I was nowhere in sight of it. Just me and the chukars that day."

Unlike most "prints" available today, this is a unique piece of art created by hand, from the freehand drawing and the carving of the blocks for each color, to the meticulous inking of the blocks before pressing them onto each sheet of cotton, acid-free paper (BFK Rives, made in France by Arches and prized by printmakers for its permanent qualities). Nevada Autumn: Humboldt County is made from eight blocks.

It includes custom conservation framing under glass, all done by Craig Mitchell, and it's ready to ship within 24 hours.
