In this print, I was just beginning to explore relief printing. I was aiming for high contrast using only the black and white from the ink and paper. I choose a barn owl as my subject to help integrate more white into the image along with birch trees. I was able to play with perception through the use of linework, decreasing consistency as the distance increases.
