In Great Mother Birth (1962), a dark,
graphic line carves out a ferocious profile, torso and breasts from the dark, churning and bloodstained space — capturing the powerful, primal nature of the event.
For Virginia Beach native Dennis McNett, also known to many as Wolfbat, that touch is
graphic and
carved from wood, featuring snarling wolves and hissing snakes — violent images created in dainty, looping
lines.
