"Jazz" - Mini Block Print - $10.00

3" X 4" Block Print Image handtinted on approximately 4" X 5 1/2" cotton paper. Wow. Long time no see. As most of you know, I've spent the last 6 months making the transition/move from Morgan City to the Big Easy - New Orleans. I'm not sure why they call it Easy... because it has not been. I spent the longest coldest winter of my life (and just when is it going to warm up?) sleeping on an air mattress and learned the meaning of "a three dog night". I was never one to sleep with my dogs until this winter. My computer monitor died in the cold, but lucky me! met a new computer savvy friend who taught me to just hook up the Big Screen tv to my computer. I immediately went to color correcting 42 files at one time! I knew life was smoothing out a bit when I found myself one day filled with gratitude for all my siblings and family and close friends who have helped me out in so many ways imaginable over these past six months. I also had a mind explosion in my sketch book. Yes! my creativity is coming back! In order to try to meet a lower price point on the streets of New Orleans, I've started carving out these New Orleans/Louisiana Mini Block prints. Each one is hand printed and then hand tinted. Over the next few days I'll be posting one each of the different blocks. I paint them in many different colors and will take color request for a minimal fee or if you want to buy a collection. Keep your eyes out for what's to come!
