The Sphinx

Image
Ralph Waldo Emerson's poem "The Sphinx" was the inspiration for a recent series of eight small prints.  Each was created by printing a cut cork plate over monotype backgrounds.  The cork matrix was an experimental material but definitely one that I will use again. Above is "Life, Death Overtaking" and below "Daedalion Plan"   (5 3/8 x 4 3/4 in.)
