Ashdown Forest linocut III: All in one

19 July 2010

Prints are coming off the press so fast, there hasn't been time to update the blog. Here's one of the new prints:

1 I cut the highlights from the block, and then I print it with a blend from light green to light red brown.





2 Next, I apply a darker blend of the same colours. Each layer takes 24 hours to dry before you can apply the next layer.







3 A darker layer in transparent blue creates some of the shadows.



4 Finally, a dark blue-black completes the image.
