Here's a breakdown of this piece by the numbers*
- 24x36- These are the dimensions of the finished piece. It's the largest block of linoleum I've ever carved!
- 17- This is the number of prints that will be part of this edition. It's inspired by the number of known red wolves currently living in the wild.
- 5- This is the number of editions I plan to make from this carving. It represents the number of Red Wolves killed by vehicles in approximately the past year. Each edition will have a different colorway, and each will consist of 17 prints total.
- 20- this is the number of hours I spent simply sketching the design for this massive print. (I didn't track the carving time-- but it took about a week.)
- 10- This is the number of clean prints I've been able to pull so far. I'm donating the first print of this edition to the Museum of Life and Science in Durham, so that means I have 9 prints available for pre-order today.
- 20%- This is the percentage of each sale I will donate to red wolf conservation.
*note- These numbers are changing constantly-- so these stats were the most current I could find when I created this piece in the summer of 2024.
