An Old Russian Saying

A friend and fellow printmaker told me a great saying that goes,
"Every joke is at least part joke."

That is the title of this print, but I think it is more fun to let you dream up all the possible links between the words and the imagery than for me to tell you what I was thinking when I created this mythical man.

I hope your thoughts snake out of your head like the myth-man's tuberous, gelatinous protuberances.




An experiment with mixing methods, the fellow was originally an etching who I scanned and added photoshopped "thoughts" to, then made into a photo litho plate (which then obviously ends up a lithography print).
