#ArtAdventCalendar day 14: a print I made the 4th #FolktaleWeek2024 prompt trail. I thought of the fairytale Hans My Hedgehog, who knew all the right trails. I love the absurdity of a half-hedgehog man riding a rooster and playing the bagpipes.
His parents desperately wanted a child, and his father foolishly wished for “even a hedgehog”; his wife gives birth to a baby who’s hedgehog from the waist up. 🧵

1. My Lino block print on white 8” x 10” Japanese paper each with a rooster viewed from the side. The rooster has a red crest, brown body and feet with blue and green under- and tail feathers. There’s a little green grass by its feet. One foot is lifted like it’s walking forward. There’s a little man who is hedgehog from the waist up, wearing boots, pants and a vest, holding bagpipes riding the rooster like a horse.
