Student/Artist’s Name: Sierra Mullikin

Grade: 12th
Artist Statement: This project is a multimedia piece made of a mokulito print and some watercolor. Mokulito is a process of printmaking where a design is drawn or painted on a piece of wood with a medium that collects the ink, which is then transferred over to paper. I strengthened my lines with watercolor after I printed, and then colored in some of the details with thin layers of color. The rabbit is a thin yellowish-green color, and the surrounding details like the leaves and acorn are their natural tones. I'm a big fan of mythical creatures, and a whimsical antlered rabbit on a wood pattern felt perfectly fitting. An ancient antlered rabbit felt even more fitting, like how trees live a long time, so I added that detail in the title."
