These are the first 3 prints of Granny. I did some touch up on them, but overall I think I'm ready to print a bunch.
Final Carving & First Test Print of Granny
Here are photos of the final carving before the first test print, inking the lino for the first time, and the very first print. I will need to do some touch up carving before the final prints can be made, but it's looking like a good start. It looks like I need to lighten up the shadows below the eye and on her cheek.
Starting my next print inspired by Granny!
These are photos of my original sketching, working out some of the details, and then drawing onto the lino. The last photos are the start of the carving.
