What Hums in You 8.5x11 (image 8 3/4x7 1/2)= $60 5.5x8.5 CARD= $15 Cicadas appear in many of Marilyn’s works. In this print, Marilyn reflects on the life cycle of periodic cicadas that live underground for 13 or 17 years and emerge, amazingly all at the same time, to mate, lay eggs and die within several weeks. In those weeks their huge numbers and dramatic behaviors put them at center stage in their environment. Just as the biological makeup of the periodic cicada compels it to live as it does, “What Hums in You” is the inner melody that makes each creature, each person the unique being they are.	Red Bellied Woodpecker in Tangerine Tree 8.5x11 (image 7 1/4x6 1/4)= $60 A recently discovered handcolored woodcut from the archives.

Royal Typewriter8.5x11 (image 8.5x11)= $60 5.5x8.5 CARD= $15 While perusing through many years of prints involving flora and fauna, we happened upon this large linoleum cut print on Japanese chiri paper of a typewriter. Only one other original print exists. Marilyn has been known to stockpile old typewriters in the attic.

LuLu 8.5x11 (image 7.5x10)= $60 5.5x8.5 CARD= $15 LuLu is a tortoise shell cat with a propensity to stick out her little pink tongue, especially during belly rubs. We adopted her from her first owner who called her "Loosley Wrapped" due to her peculiar behaviors like eating plastic bags.

Lines radiate out from the bird suggesting both the impact of the fall and the eventual disappearance of the corpse as it is carried off, bit by bit, by flies and other insects.

In 2004, during the most recent emergence of Brood X, Marilyn was fascinated to observe the huge numbers of adult cicadas and the high decibel, rhythmic “singing” of the males during frenzied mating activities.
