Winter makes the landscape black and white. The branches of the trees are visible. City shapes stand out against the simplicity of white snow.
I see inspiration for stencils when this happens in my neck of the woods. I know not everyone has white winters, so maybe you have another environmental condition that quiets the visual noise and feeds your printmaker’s heart.
Maybe it is a time of day or a foggy day.
Be open to seeing a simplified landscape
to inspire your next printmaking project.
I see shapes with just enough interest to become a stencil for working on the gelatin plate.
- trees
- twigs
- birds on a wire
- buildings on the horizon
