Black wrist warmer – Bluebird Flies
My take on one of Thomas Bewick’s masterful woodcarvings
He worked on Boxwood, cut across the grain, which
was the forerunner to modern illustrations. He directed
his attention to the portion of the block which he was to
leave, not what he was to remove.  In doing so he brought
tone and atmosphere to his wood engravings. As one
passionate collector wrote, “His work was to sound the
depths of nature, to reveal on wood the glowing warmth
of summer and the bitter cold of winter.”
