The daily dose of art NEW CLAY MONO TYPES

It has been a long time since I've been able to share anything new coming off the slab of clay that has been sitting so patiently in my studio.  Earlier in this still new year I decided to get my hands dirty once again...and thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Here are three prints from a series of four, each measuring 27x12"
