The Making of the Lithographic Print, Shroud I

The lithographic print, Shroud I, was created for the show RESPONSE at ArtHelix Gallery in Brooklyn, NY, exhibiting from November 10-26, 2017. It is the inaugural show of Vox Populi Print Collective, for which I am happy to be a member. Very special thanks for Elizabeth Jean Younce for graining the stone and Barry Roal Carlsen for expertly handling the printing.

Some very rough thumbnails. I was thinking about faces and forms of fabric.

The lithograph print, ready to be painted and cut out. The lily wasn't included in the final print, as I liked the roundness of the head with the linear berry stalks and barbed wire. Printed by Barry Roal Carlsen.
