This image is from the Dover Pictorial Archives, a terrific source for public-domain clipart. It is 1.5 x 4 inches, and was carved in Speedball Speedy-Stamp. |
Albrecht Durer was a 16th-century artist best known for his wonderfully detailed woodcuts. This is a self-portrait from his later years. It measures 3.5 x 4.5 inches, and was carved in MasterCarve. |
Many of Durer's works were religious. This is the head of Jesus. It measures 2.75 x 4, and was carved in MasterCarved. |
This is another of Durer's religious images, depicting Jesus after his crucifixion. It measures 4 x 4, and was carved in MasterCarve. |
This is my favorite of Durer's woodcuts. It depicts a rhinoceros, a creature unknown in Europe during Durer's time. He created this image based on word-of-mouth descriptions. This is the largest carving I have done to date; it measures 8.5 x 6 inches, and was carved on Speedball Speedy-Stamp. |
