With buds and flowers that are edible for birds, not to mention fruit and visiting insects, the Japanese Crabapple tree is a veritable bird buffet. One of the many birds that favor s the Japanese Crabapple is the insect-loving, black-and-white warbler. Known for its highly contrasting black and white coloration, this small songbird migrates between the tropics and Northeastern US. Its distinctive song, a reedy chirping that the Audubon Society compares to the sound of a squeaky wheelbarrow, is an early sign of spring. Our print, Warbler, was inspired by a dazzling Japanese Crabapple tree in Central Park, in full bloom and at high volume thanks to the songs and clamor of resident birds (warblers among them) celebrating the spring season. Made with water-based printing inks, watercolors, and heavy printing paper, Warbler is a limited edition, linocut print that is printed by hand in New York City. The subtle variations that result from hand printing make each print one of a kind. Imperfections, such as uneven ink coverage and waves in the paper ground, are inherent to our block printing process and are part of its beauty.
