Blockprint Proof

8"x6"

It is interesting how my prints have gradually changed since graduating from the MFAIA this time last year. I have naturally moved back towards a more line-based design with an emphasis on the color block as part of my overall vision.

One unusual thing I learned about my process is that the 8"x6" block is over sized for my letterpress print bed and I cannot place text at the bottom of this print. This is problematic as I had planned to create another hanging scroll and I have to come up with a creative way to do so.
