Hi all
I’ve been working on this small’ish four block print over the past few days. It is a rework of a large reduction print I did a couple of years ago. I’ll try some colourways next.

Happy printing!

Hi all
Very suspect photography and very rushed printing but here is the second layer of these trial prints. I need to print all four blocks before deciding whether to do more cutting. So far so good.

Hi all
So finally printing the final layer!
This is a reject print, too much chatter in the sky, but it gives a fair representation of how the finished print will look.

Hi all!
Putting down the mid grey rock colour today. It has been slow progress, life has been getting in the way!

It will hopefully be easier after this layer.

Interesting to note that the majority of those shown are male, pale and stale.
