Nordic Nightsong III

multicolor woodcut print, 2015

38.5”h x 27”w, matted and framed

I create a woodcut from my Nordic Night Song series each year, with the goal of pushing my compositional skills as a printmaker and having a benchmark to gauge my personal growth as an artist.  This image weaves together elements of Nordic mythology. Foremost is Yggdrasil, the tree of life. Its branches spread invisibly though the universe.  The ravens Huginn and Muninn often symbolize thought and memory an important message to live in the moment but be aware and honoring of the past. Mjölnir, the Hammer of Thor also makes an appearance; it’s an ambiguous tool that could be used to destroy or to build.
