Image: During a return trip from Durango, Colorado last
August I kept seeing these empty yucca pods...I must have stopped 10 times looking
for the right one to draw and must have taken 50 shots of the darned things.
They are Mohave Yucca seed pods, and the intricacies of the shells fascinated
me.
Here's a detailed view of the print.
Print is not for sale, done for a printmaker's exchange (that's how printmakers
have fun!)
