"Chia Punk" meets "Lady Gaga"



These prints are inventive combos of monotype & linocuts. In both examples, the monotype hair or hat elements contrast quite nicely with the more graphic mark-making that the relief method allows.
I found myself thinking of the young Bob Dylan (or at least the film - "I'm Not Here") when viewing Nareg's Cool Cat
& because I'm of a - ahem - certain age, I referenced the late Moe Howard (or perhaps Shemp?) in his print titled: Dumb and Dumber.
