American President John F. Kennedy JFK & daughter Caroline 1960
Original woodcut art print
Original woodcut art print
An original woodcut print created by hand, limited edition signed by artist.
Inspired by a photograph of John F. Kennedy and his little daughter Caroline, walking down the street, 1960.
I like this casual fatherly moment for the otherwise "celebrity" politician.
The handmade technique enhances the sense of peace coming out of this image.
The process involves retouching the image to enhance some elements, converting it into an illustration, carving in a relief using carving knives and then printed by hand.
I use Abachi woodblock, top shelf ink, and Japanese Awagami fineArt paper (Kozo Thin Natural).
"Kennedy" is part of a larger series of original woodcuts, also including:
"Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller 1956"
"Audrey Hepburn, Roman Holiday 1953"
