Jeff White, All But Blue

About the cover artist: Jeff White embraces themes of connection, impermanence, and the both/and principle through the reduction woodcut printmaking process. He carves a single contour line in plywood, entering one edge, exiting another. Ink is rolled, paper registered; print, carve, repeat. Ultimately another contour line remains from which the darkest value is printed. Search Totemic17 for more info.
