Kudos to Dan for taking chances and not rehashing old prints, but I have really not been into the last three releases.

too many prints to screen one's self, package, and ship. i'm pretty sure this wasn't Dan's intention but it is a result of appeasing demand. you're damned if you do and you're damned if u don't. i see changes coming one way or another (outsourcing, staffing, downsizing print runs etc) in order to give Dan more time to work on designs, originals, and other things.Staunchy wrote:they just keep getting worse and worse each month. What gives?
All in all, this is Dan's best print in 3 months. I still don't know how he gets all this work done each month. I would be going insane.

I haven't been feeling much for Dan's working in quite awhile

Spinach salad.......... no croutons, with raisins
I like this one. I believe that Dan has constructed a kind of early colonial New England scene, with houses of a very early style, set closer together than a town of that era would have been--but with some modern building in the middle. Reminds me in its concept very much of While You Were Sleeping...which had a complex semi-realistic old city, with one very different object somewhat off-center, but close to the middle of the image
In looking at this again, I also notice that there appears to be a cluster of eight people in the road at the bottom of the print, but I can't make out any details
). Definite buy for me.
I've been loving Dan's prints lately.
My reading of this print:
Salad Days = the days when we still had just a little bit of room left to grow. Those were the days...
