Artist Statement: I mostly have worked with graphite. This is my first time doing a print and I really enjoyed it. It is different very drawing from drawing but one similarity is working with lines and not much room for mistakes. This work was inspired by nuclear bomb and I have always been inspired by nature. A rare side of nature is mushrooms, only coming around at a certain time each year and are very unique.
Artwork Dimensions: 12 inches high by 12 inches wide
