Artwork description:

I saw this skull and orchid on a table in So. California. I have no idea what animal the skull comes from, but it's an amazing form, and the orchid is just such an elegant and gorgeous flower! I love these natural designs.

So here's how I made this image: I drew the image onto linoleum, carved out the negative space, and printed the image onto Strathmore paper with printing ink. Then, I colored it in with watercolor and gouache.

Materials used:

linoleum, carving tools, printing paper and ink, watercolor and gouache
