The evolution of wolf to dog has always fascinated me. In early stories of Romulus and Remus being raised by wolves to more modern Mowgli in The Jungle Book, female wolves have accepted others into their pack. Wolves have tight knit family units that revolve around a breeding female, and this biological fact corresponds to many myths of the She-Wolf. Fiercely protective, yet nurturing to those who need her, the She-Wolf reminds me that all sides of the feminine are needed.

This piece is a "relief engraving.” It is in the block print or relief family of printmaking, which refers to two surfaces, one lower than the other, so that the highest surface prints. I hand carve each image with small but tough tools called burins, or gravers. The remaining surface is rolled with ink and pressed through the printing press. Each print taken from the plate is part of an edition, and numbered. My limited editions are always under 100 since they are inked and cranked by hand on my printing press. Printed on 100% Cotton Rag Paper.
