The finished woodcut

Finished the woodcut after a great many problems with the MDF boards, for some reason the MDF was highly porous therefore did not clean properly and the surface fractured on the second cut. Therefore this print which is made up of 6 separate colours had to be made with 3 separate boards. This has resulted in an image which is not as cohesive as I would have liked. Anyway …. Still enjoyed making it and dealing with the technical challenge. I took one of the edition to the framers….. I will donate it at the exhibition for the raffle…… It should be OK.

I think I will call it Lay of the land Thanks mr smith

Woodcut… Getting close. Aiming to get the print ready for the exhibition. Just a small edition of 4…. All a little different. Had some problems with the quality of the wood. Needs a dark tone to tie the image together… That’s the next step
