About the Item

Chittering and Chattering I, Linoleum Block Print, Ed. 10, 11 5/8 x 11 5/8 Inches is one of a series of 6 related small prints (this one) and 6 large prints (35 1/2 x 23 1/4 inches) by Lisa Houck, a very established artist from Boston with a large following devoted to her exceptional work (paintings, watercolors, mosaics and prints) reminiscent of Matisse and Aborigine art, with gorgeous color and a sensibility both playful and serious that is uniquely her own. This print is not framed. Houck has also executed many large public art commissions for interior and exterior sites in Boston and nationwide which are ambitious murals in oil or mosaic located in hospitals, libraries, playgrounds and other public buildings.
