This is a relief plate carved from wood paneling that I did at 12 years of age. Don't recall pulling any prints off it but I must have as it's stained with inks. Reminds me of a cave painting. I might hand pull a couple prints, but my critical eye might just expect me to rework the carving. I won't do that. I'll put it on a maybe someday project idea...maybe work some mono prints off it's plan. I thought about this old plate when Uta had photoed Kangaroo crossing sign! The spring whimsy that is floating through the tribe is quite catching!

Hey Kangaroos on Doris' blog, that can't be! They look mighty fine Doris. Why don't you come on down and see some real ones or maybe cuddle a koala or two?
These are great Doris!!
I just love this piece. Has an ancient feel to it, like a primitive wall painting, yet such action. I could see them leaping from the page right onto my lap! I'd like that! I see some little babes in pouches too. Texture is awesome, the hints of black add interest. Got to be another one of my faves!!!! Was this done recently? Nice to see kangas in Illinois.
Twelve years old! My gosh! It's just wonderful - don't change a thing.
I love the kangaroos, Doris! I agree with April, don't change a thing! I don't remember doing anything quite so wonderful at age 12, wow.
