I've been experimenting with the "easy cut" block prints. This image was done in two stages with a lighter layer of blue printed first. Then I cut away a few more details and printed a darker blue blend over the top of the first print. The material is easier to cut than linoleum but it doesn't print well with a printing press because it is so soft and squashy. I used a baren to hand print this edition.
