Hi all I have a couple of lino projects on the go, one is a reduction at the ‘ugly duckling’ stage of print. The other is this single block at the cutting stage. I’m trying something a little different to my usual style, really enjoying the process 😊 #boxinghares #gallerydb #japanesevinyl

Linocut block of two boxing hares cut from Japanese vinyl. Work in progress.
