'Mating Time II' (Multiple coloured linocut and woodcut of the Great Bowerbird)

This is a hand-pulled original multiple linocut and woodcut of the Australian Great Bowerbird. This bird inhabits the Northern region of Australia and it can be common in some parts in North Queensland. The male builds a 'bower' to attract the female for mating. The bower is a beautiful and sophisticated structure built using branches and adorned with ornaments of a variety of colours. In this particular species, white, green, silver and red are often the preferred choice. I have called this print 'Mating Time (2)'. The image shows the female having a look from inside the bower, and the male on the outside surrounded by its many collections, including white shells of landsnails, bottle tops, grey plastic pieces.

Note: This is the last print available in the edition (4/7)
