About this work

This print shows three big black blobs of different sizes on a light, uneven background. Around them are small, faint pencil sketches of pinecones and other shapes. The big blobs look rough, like they’re made of thick, heavy paint. The artist used a printing method called lithography, where the image is drawn on a flat stone or plate. The texture of the blobs makes them look almost three-dimensional. Check out how lithography works next.
