Artist's comments ...
Name: Maria Arango
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada USAPrint Title: Puesta del sol
The image is a simple sunset, Wanda was a simple person who loved color, beauty of nature and all the simple things in life. I couldn’t make up my mind whether to make this a sunset or a moon scene, so I changed the color block and made both, one for each exchange. The faint symbol lower left is a Native American saddlebag, or journey. Farewell my friend.

Comments: A puzzle print with the cork block serving as color block, easier to split but tough to carve and print. But then again, what’s life without a challenge.
