Cricketts Inky Art Blot

Yesterday morning, I worked on finishing book one. The rest of the day I stitched and covered a second book using one of the other cover prints. I am going to make this my journal of impossible things, coined from Doctor Who's book. In this book I will paint, draw and take notes of my own adventures in it. Both books are drying and are ready for filling as art books at a later time.

Thursday night, After taking numerous prints, i have 4 copies that I think are good enough for an edition. Thursday evening, This is the first proof off the matrix. The carving is not too bad, but the ink is patchy. Thursday afternoon, I have returned to carving the matrix and have decided to run some single colour prints from it before reducing further for the second printing. I will incorporate a softcut block into these prints for a small edition (possibly as few as 5) fragmented narrative. Thursday morning The stitches are completed and the signatures sewn together. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
