Chameleon

 

I have started but not finished two connected prints, my first Linocut ‘Tree
Frog’ and a second one called ‘Chameleon’.

 

They are both cut – the Chameleon needs a bit of refinement on the fine
line work – both have been proofed and waiting for a final print run.

 

I get so excited with the desire to cut the lino but I am less keen on the
printing. Inking and printing is quite slow and laborious and I do get bored
and impatient with the drying time. I don’t know id this is the ink or the
paper I am using – I think it’s more likely the paper is not absorbent
enough.

 

I am looking to get hold of some Japanese paper to try.
