And Heat and Light
And Heat and Light
First off, let me just say how much fun it is to screenprint a rainbow. Watching the colors overlay each other forming a brighter and brighter arch of color. Serious goodtime printfun. Photos do not do this justice, it's bright and beautiful and glowing with color. This print came after I finished the book, I was reading through We are all Me, and as I got to the page after the rain, as the sun came out, it hit my like a ton of bricks that I should have had a rainbow page! So obvious. So anyhow, here's the rainbow page.
