print blog FOUR Abstract Expressionests and Women

It's  a woodcut of a pretty 1950,s woman who looks as if she is asleep but she is dead after jumping from a high building and landing on a car. Her dress is a de Kooning painting applied as chincollage. I tried a Pollock but de Kooning uses prettier colours.  I chose an abstract expressionist because they were American, from the 1950's and were mean to woman 
pollock,ugly
de Kooning,pretty

I included this just because I like the print. It's an etching I did from a photo I took of a girl singing on a street in Paris last year. I thought it must be wonderful to be so young and so pretty and to live in Paris
