Finally got the print finished and in time to send a couple to Holmfirth Artweek, of which more below.

Holmfirth Art Week

Today was the sending in day for Holmfirth Artweek, so the last couple of days have been spent in last minute preparations. Both my exhibits in the main exhibition had to be framed and a selection of around 50 unframed prints and drawings mounted and arranged in the print browsers.

The work was delivered this afternoon ready to be set up for the opening next Sunday. The event runs until the following Saturday. So if you are in the area please go along and enjoy the exhibition. There is work from a wide range of artists and craftspeople from paintings, prints and sculpture to jewelery and ceramics. Full details can be found at http://www.holmfirthartweek.net/

Safely Ashore- Hornsea. Reduction Linocut.

Almost Finished

Only the final dark to go now.

Coming Along Nicely

Fourth colour down only two more to go. I should get this finished in time for the Holmfirth Artweek taking in day on Sunday.

Third Colour

Well that worked better than expected.. The cutting would have been easier if I'd worked bigger though.

Colour 2

Colour 2 and the image is starting to appear.
So far so good. Now for the fiddly bit.

Developing an Idea

This might not work. The size (180mm x 120mm) is a bit small for what promises to be some fiddly cutting. In 5 more colours we will find out.
