Pandemic Winter 2021

 For a week in the 2021 pandemic winter, I paid to work in Penland’s print studio. I had this glorious, beautifully lit, open space to myself.  I had been photographing rain and sleet, water on windshields, puddles, water splashing in pools. So I carved wood blocks and began to print, layering one block upon another, attempting to convey the movement of water, frozen in time. I laid out the production of my week and felt intensely proud.
