Busy Art Day


Tina sealed my pastel woodcuts with final fixative.  They look more jeweltone.  All along I was thinking they'd look muddy or dark, but I guess fixative has improved since I was in high school.  
;-}  I'll have pics later.

Pastel'd a mini-dragonfly ~ from an ATC exchange.


3-color technique (red, green, yellow-orange) with purple and a reddish brown in the background.  Also a thin line of dark blue under the body to make it more 3-D.

Worked on a new chop.



I prefer the rectangular one.  Looks more like two separate letters.


Square is ok, more chop-like.  Have to see if it reads like an e and an s. 


So what size?


Smaller?

About that I'd say.

Or this?

Steampunk Critters


Working on a new woodcut.  Nicolas (Nicky Chong).  I've decided to carve a 4"x6" block.

Still thinking about a matching one for Gabrielle (Gabby).
