Back to the adders

Its coming up to three months of Beautiful Beasts and Sue and I have given oursleves to the end of the month to try to get a few things finished as well as the ongoing sketching and developing of ideas. So it’s back to the adders and a finished lino cut.

I am working larger now and this one will be approx 11.75 x9.5 inches. It needed some more working out and so I started with a rough and a tonal value sketch

Two colour ideas for 3 col reduction. It will probably be very different in the end, but it’s a start.

…and starting to cut the block
