My new floral prints

Here are the beginnings of my new floral prints. Floral always sounds rather dainty but these are anything but dainty with a bold use of colour and black over printing.

Linocut

Another day course at the Curwen print study centre near Linton.

Everything about the process is full of colour and energy.  First choosing the inks and then rolling them out on old bread boards, shiny with age and amazing patina.  I would happily have them on my wall.

The last picture is the drying rack where the prints sit layer upon layer.
