“Flight” at Side Door Gallery

Theobroma cacao, linocut, unpainted

This linocut titled, “Theobroma cacao” was designed and printed especially for the Chocopalooza Festival at Adrian High School.  Adrian High School alumni teamed up to exhibit artwork to be auctioned off during the event.  All proceeds will go towards the Adrian Public Schools.  

I plan to water color this over the weekend and have a finished piece by Monday.

“Theobroma cacao” is the latin name for the Cocoa Tree.  If you are familiar with cocoa trees you’ll notice the flowers are about 10 x their normal size.  That’s called artistic license.  I love the flowers on this tree and wanted to show them in more detail than I could if I put them in proportionally.  Inspiration to do this print came from the Theobroma cacao tree at Hidden Lake Gardens.

Tecumseh Center for the Arts

 Nuthatch was a winner in the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s “Little Green Places” Photo and Art Contest.  You can see him live at the Tecumseh Center for the Arts from now until the end of the month.  Nuthatch and eight other original prints will be on display during the TCA’s production of “It’s a Wonderful Life” and the “Big Band Holiday Concert”.
