Week 3 of the current course. Up at the crack of dawn - again - to do a bit of cutting, in hopes of printing this week.

| at the start |
 |
| I love the "nibbles" ... the reminded me of something drawn in a museum... |
 |
| November 2015 - barkcloth from Vanuatu at the British Museum |
I decided to leave that for a while, and to print the "moons" that I'd started in the summer...
 |
| Aiming for grey and getting blue-grey, brown-grey, grey-brown.... |
 |
| It's not printing very strongly... |
 |
| ... at all ... |
 |
| Using Carol's large baren, and more pressure, makes a bit difference! |
 |
| 9 prints with 2 blocks and 4 colours mixed in various ways |
Closer, sharper -
Carol brought in a very diverting book - it's a model-book, a cabinet of curiosities (clicking on the photos should enlarge them):
I like your nibbles very much! The moons are beautiful! What kind of wood do you use to carve?
