New art rubbercstamps


Im working on a new piece using an oak seedling I pulled out of a pot in the garden.  A friendly blue jay planted it and up sprang a little black oak.  I left it for a long time so when I started to tug, the root just kept coming.  Longer and longer.   It had coiled around inside the small pot. I love that it stayed intact.  I dried it and pressed it in a big atlas.

I found it again, years later and decided it needed to come out of the book so I could marvel over it and admire it in remembrance of my old garden.

My hand carved oak tree stamps could be used and now I carved some acorn stamps.   You will soon see how I used them
