It was all about the summer school this week (and the heat) - a little woodblock printing got down, as I'm still finalising my piece for A Letter In Mind ... I'm making heavy work of the theme of Making Light Work.

| Going over to the dark side! |
Having "flaps" inside the "sealed envelope" was worth a try but getting them centred with the registration on an angle, and a floating kento, did my head in -
 |
| Close, closer, closest... |
 |
| Angular contortions, mis-placements, re-placements |
 |
| Some were printed on tracing paper (not dampened) |
The assembly of the "envelopes" is yet to come.
Another project on the go is for the Morley print department postcard exchange. I've been faffing around with moon eclipse imaginary configurations, thinking to give "Eclipticality" a "fractured" background as with the red prints in the pic above.
 |
| Maybe this one?? |
Current thinking is to use a block that's already cut, maybe one of the mountain ones from last year, and do these moons "later".
The first postcard (of four) has arrived - "Arctic Ice Floes Breaking Up" is a collograph made using materials from acrylic paint to wet and dry sandpaper. Thank you, Anna Reisenberger, it's lovely!
No pressure....
