Back in the early days of COVID quarantine, I began to pursue an interest I had held for a long time: Pennsylvania Dutch hex signs. I fell down a rabbit-hole of research into what is known as Fraktur art and fell even more in love with the simple, stylized flora and fauna drawn up by the PA Dutch in the 1700 & 1800's.
I started experimenting with my own modern take on the historic design style. Many traditional Fraktur feature birds (distelfink, a folk interpretation of the European goldfinch); I thought it would be cool to fuse my fascination with Pennsylvania's common backyard birds and Fraktur design.
After having so much fun designing and printing , I decided to create another set of 5 in a slightly different color palette. This print features a Red-Winged Blackbird, a common visitor to the marshes of Pennsylvania in the summer. I named this print "DJ Khaled" because of his catchphrase- "Another one" which I how I feel when I see these friends in the summer. At first, it's so exciting when they return! Then it's like- "oh, another one . . ." ;)
