The giant linocut project is already at the half way stage! After another 6 hours of printing today at Hot Bed Press, the prints are drying, having been transformed by the third colour.
Tomorrow I will hand print the spot colours to define the hot air balloons and poppies!
Below you can see the development of the print so far, in images - as the design slowly emerges.
