Kookaburra

Kook-a-burra, isn’t it fun to say? There are 10 Kookaburra’s now on my Etsy Store or $20 each. This is print 15 of 30.

Seven years ago I spent three months in Tasmania. I loved hearing the Kookaburras, I also  like saying the word, Kook-a-burr-a.  I am missing my Australia friends, the human ones, so in thinking of them I made the kookaburra.

This print has a complicated rainbow roll of black to mid-lavender to blue. After I finished printing, I had  ink left. I also had paper cutoffs. My paper, Rives BFK is 22″ x 30, it yields, 6,  8″ x 10″ sheets and 3, 6″ x 10″ sheets. So from here on out, I am going to print the cutoffs using the same ink but a different block.   The peacock is an open edition and is available for $15 on Etsy.
