“Amazon Voyage” Exhibit
Early in 2005 I produced seven new linoleum block prints based on the “Seven Perils of the Amazon” for the “Amazon Voyage” exhibit. The exhibit is loosely organized around the perils, so these were key design elements. I found the seven “Plagues” to be tremendously inspiring, especially the notorious little catfish called the Candirú (so much so that I even wrote a little song about it). The prints are hand colored with watercolors.
