which was colored with gouache paint

The fabric pattern was inspired by historical etchings on armor

this piece is a linocut and watercolor painting

Rebirth (Gorget) - Crew Neck T-shirt Late April 2023 which was colored with gouacheThe "Rebirth" Gorget design was inspired by an actual piece of 17th century armor. I find strength in the fact that I am part of something greater than myself, so I focused on motifs of mortality. The ouroboros is an old symbol for the cycle of renewal. Luna moths represent transformation and life. Acorns, which eventually grow into giant oak trees symbolize potential and strength. Features shimmery silver ink! Imagery is locally screen printed in
