Woodblock Wednesday

The production so far - using my old "passing planets" blocks, and a block carved this term, based on my inky zen circles -
A session of printing, between classes - 
before

after - more circles and some overprinting
 The plan is to join those together. But first, laying them out in different ways ("playing" - !), pushing the ideas along -


Limited palette -

Back in class, demonstration of sharpening tools -
 Carol also teaches on a course that combines woodblock printing with book making. Possible formats include a cloth-covered dos-a-dos book with many-layered pages, and a coptic stitched book with prints inside and the blocks used as the covers.Wow.

This is such an interesting class you are taking. I like the orange circles on top of the planets.
