‘Pineapple’, woodcut, “5x6”, printed on white rice paper with burnt umber Daniel Smith oil-based ink.
The Pineapple War has concluded with a peaceful resolution. I’m very pleased with the results and like the ability to cut fine detail in wood which is much trickier in lino.
Available here.

Your perseverance paid off there, Diane -- that's a handsome pineapple! I hope you do many more botanical works.
Thanks, David... As a matter of fact, I've been going through old photos and drawing of tropical flowers and plants with that very idea! I love everything about working with wood, from the plotting and planning to the cutting and printing. Each stage has a different personality and appeal...
It came out great!
Wow, this is a real beauty! I love it! Bravo on your design, and variations in your cutting , and your composition. And the subject. And the color, yes, the color of the ink is great too! Just terrific.
Thanks, Annie and Belinda... I am especially pleased at how well it came out considering it was a major headache for a while.
I love this...it's gorgeous!

Thanks, Jen... I was amazed at how much detail all-shina wood allows.
