I made this piece of work as an experiment in combining the mediums of painting and printmaking
The subject that inspired the work is a windblown hawthorn tree that can be seen on the bend of a road known as the Green Road in the Burren, County Clare.
Figure 1 is the first print taken from the woodcut block:
Figure 2 shows the areas I have coloured by hand using acrylic paint:
Figure 3 shows the finished work with the key block printed over the coloured image.
