Block Prints

April 3, 2011

I picked up some new art for my office the other day. Our friend Dave who owns the Ocean Grill and Tiki Bar does some pretty awesome wood block prints so when I caught up with him recently I made sure to get a couple. The coolest thing about these is that they’re both test pieces that he did before attempting to carve them into 4×8 sheets of plywood. There’s an event on CB where artists have a steamroller drive over their giant carved sheets of plywood to print the image onto huge canvases. So rad! Anyway, I don’t have enough wall space for the big ones so I got these instead and just pretend. Now that the weather’s getting nice, head on over to Ocean Grill and try the Crabcake Sandwich, and if you see Dave, buy some art too!
