Woodpecker Holes / 2021 / Charcoal Monotype / Each 9X13”

The Woodpecker Holes series of charcoal monotypes emerges from actual rubbings made from woodpecker holes on trees in the forest, in Creston BC. The charcoal rubbings are then transferred onto a new substrate using a printmaking press. The act of rubbing the punctured surface of the trees is sealed during the printmaking process into a permanent record.
