Working #7 (Night)

Once the black and white print was completed. I asked the boys on the ship what they thought of the print.  Charlie, Executive Director LILAC,  said he liked the plate and ink. After looking at it, I thought not too shabby. So that was how this two plate print came about.

Printed this past winter in the Wardroom on LILAC. I am no hero and just do not like painting out side when it is super cold, so I print while it is freezing outside on the nice warm ship.

Three color Reduction Print. My first step was to cut anything I wanted to stay white then printed in blue. Next I cut the blue and printed the shadow water color. Third and final step was to cut the shadow water color and print the black. This process is tedious and leaves a great margin for failure. I marked the back of each print to help register each new color.

Sandy Hook

Sandy Hook, Linoleum Limited Edition 150, Image size 8"x8"

This is one of my favorite prints and experiences. The Sandy Hook Pilots have two anchored vessels, New York for winter rough weather, New Jersey for summer calmer weather. While one is out the other is in port. On that particular day, last October, the New York was headed out to sea with me onboard, yipee, but I could not stay out there, so the Sandy Hook came to pick me up. The two figures driving are Gary and Brian, but before I boarded the Sandy Hook, I had to jump from one vessel to the other. Living my only Bond Girl adventure, so far. . .
