This print started as one of a series of colour studies. "CWC" stands for cool, warm contrast. The long title comes from petroglyphs--old carvings in rock--that I saw when I was in the Virgin Islands. While carving this woodcut, I thought of them and of images of ancient rock paintings I had seen. |
