Have you ever checked out @tumbleweed.found ?! It’s such a pleasant, highly curated treasure trove 😍

We stopped in last First Friday for the ‘Friend or Foe’ by artist Bridget Henry. Bridget is a California based printmaker known for her hand carved woodcuts. Her work often explores the intersections of nature, perception, and transformation. Drawing from both ecological themes and personal experience, she uses traditional printmaking techniques to explore questions about how we define and relate to the world around us.
