JACQUES HNIZDOVSKY
These undeniably adorable woodcuts give me butterflies. Well, that last one, the ram, is actually an etching, but I had to include it. It's amaaaaaaaaazing.
I love how stylized they are – ruffled feathers become ornaments and shells take on intricate, tantalizing, geometric patterns. They're almost hypnotic!
Born in the Ukraine, Hnizdovsky moved to the U.S. in 1949. Most of the above works were completed in the 70s.
