day 9 – ecosphere

Today’s piece should be filed under Awesomosity!


Earlier today I saw this image in my flickr favorites and I instantly wanted to carve a stamp I could use repeatedly in one piece. I also had a lunch date with printer extraordinaire, pejnolan, so printing was a necessity.

I spied my ecosphere and got the idea to do a piece based on that.

Above you can see the progression of the stamp, from the blank block, to the original sketch, line drawing on the block and then the actual cut out stamp.

I love, love, love this piece and am so inspired to do more using handcarved stamps.
