“Urodzaj II”; i wanted to revisit the theme of pomegranates and figs that i had already explored before in my work. i rarely make prints in shape of a circle or a square; i feel the composition is more challenging. in the second version of “Urodzaj,” i added olive branch to the design #printmaking
the print with a fire salamander was inspired by Władysław Siwek’s illustrations - amazing Polish scientific illustrator also known for documenting his time in concentration camp. if it wasn’t for his art, he wouldn’t have survived. after the war, he was making illustrations of animals. #printmaking
“Szczygieł na gałęzi granatowca” prints it’s a block i carved two years ago as a part of a small birds of fruit trees series, but printed only recently. i like the textures used, especially on the bird #printmaking
