Different designs printed on top of each other in very light and see through inks = ghost print.

Printed on cream thick cotton paper with brown, black and a bit of red inks from a hand carved Shina wood block sourced from a sustainable forest in Hokkaido, Japan. Faint words from my letterpress print that says "If you're always forgetting, then start remembering." Original print found here. Printed unregistered and no title. Signature and year of production appear on front of each print.

 Rusty Patch Bumble Bee" is inspired by the efforts to save Bell Bowl Prairie on the grounds of the Rockford Airport. Plans to demolish it were postponed in November 2021 but it is still under threat. Although it is currently saved through October 15th 2022, the airport still plans to bulldoze it. It was recently spared again on March 1st. The RPBB has been discovered at Bell Bowl Prairie - this bee is IL state and federally endangered. There is also plant life at this very rare gravel prairie that is IL state endangered. Hope remains that the airport will redesign its expansion so that this prairie can be saved. We can have both the airport expansion AND the prairie! More information and updates can be found at www.SaveBellBowlPrairie.org
