It serves me as a reminder, that not everything needs to be done at breakneck speed, otherwise you’ll lose sight of your long term goals. Our lives are too short to miss it by being in a hurry!
This print was carved from a slice of birch, which itself added a lot of character and unique mark-making in the print.
There is also a companion print of the Tortoise.
