“Junk of the Heart “ is a 18" x 25" lithograph dye print by Allison Walker, a BFA printmaking student at Western Michigan University’s Gwen Frostic School of Art. 

The art of printmaking is unique in that there typically isn't a single 'precious' print, allowing the art to be more accessible to the common man, fostering an appreciation for arts from the ground up.
