Description:
Just Hanging Out is a reductive, multi color, lino-cut by Monique Wales. An edition of only 5 pieces, this image is of the cones from a Sugar Pine tree and two Red-breasted Nuthatches. Monique writes:
Sugar Pines are the world's tallest pines, and were prized by Indigenous peoples who used the seeds and bark for food, rootlets for baskets, the sweet resin for glue or gum, and the leaves and bark to make medicinal teas.
A number of bird and animal species also make use of their seeds including birds such as grouse, crossbills, jays, nuthatches, siskins, woodpeckers, and squirrels. l've included a pair of Red-breasted Nuthatches as adornments to these two cones, though you could probably hear them before you spotted them in a real tree! Sugar Pines silhouettes are easily spotted by looking for their magnificent pine cones (up to 26" long) dangling from the boughs.
Only one remains - this is the last of the edition! Edition number 4
