Family Portrait: Ladies Slippers

$150.00

The Minnesota State Flower, the Showy Ladies Slipper, shows itself only one week each June. Found in the north woods, I have only seen them in bloom twice in my life—and both times growing alongside a highway. Of course, I just had to get out of the car and photograph them. And one time I even sat down in the road ditch to sketch a large cluster of them. This print is the culmination of my drawings and photos.

  • Hand-colored Woodcut on Rives BFK paper

  • Edition size: 15

  • Print image size: 14 3/4" w X 13 3/4" h
