There is a regular art history narrative of the recovery of a woman's reputation & work from the previous wife-of-artist-X depiction....

this week it is the wonderful work of Tirzah Garwood (subject of an exhibition at the Dulwich Picture Gallery from next month).... enjoy.

Just a reminder that even before there was generative AI, we still had weird-looking pictures. It just was more effort to find them.

Some weird animals, from the archives of the (US) National Library of Medicine's History of Medicine division.

The rhino picture is, in fact, a whole THING.

A very angry looking squirrel, shown in a woodcut gathering acorns. It has ferocious teeth.
A woodcut of a porcupine with a tight rictus of a smile, and not enough quills and a bald face
A woodcut of a rhinocerous that looks more like it is wearing metal plated armor.
A woodcut of a long and black camel which has a bald neck and a single hump that looks vaguely like an erupting volcano

After some linocutting I decided in May of this year to set up five #woodcuts, to see if I would have a feel for it. I now have the results, and I am happy with them. I want to continue it, with better woodblocks, better paper… i will pursue it! Will start the new year with setting up a webshop for the prints 🙂
Here’s a little thread of my journey

Really happy with the result of my last woodcutprinting course.

"Laziness (La paresse)," Félix Vallotton, 1896.

A nude woman relaxes on a bed, reaching out to a playful cat. Vallotton was one of the Nabis, a school of art I love. This woodcut is a great example of the Nabi love of pattern and intimate scenes. This is the sort of lazing we all love to do.

From the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, PA.

A woodblock print in black and white. A nude woman lounges face down on a bed. The bedspread features patches in varying patters, and the bed is heaped with pillows and cushions in different shapes and patterns The woman supports her head with her left arm, and with her right, reaches out to a white cat stretching up from the floor to the edge of the bed. One of the cat's paws is touching the woman's hand, either in play or affection. This is done in the style of the Nabi school of art.
