I worked on a small rubber block carving to use in some new work, so tonight's drawings include a couple of prints (proofs) of that. Also the carving tool itself, and a stuffed version of the girls, and then a boat that I made out of sticks and sausage casing a few years ago for the girls. Trying to bring girls, woman, and boat together in this seed piece. Still diverging and holding back from racing to a conclusion. (This paper does okay with light watercolor, but it's unevenly sized, it seems. It did fine when I painted the boat and the girls, but the tool bled a little. Must be a surface size, unevenly applied. ) I really enjoy working with it, especially with pen. The prints show very fine vertical lines going the length of the page, probably from the mould or maybe the couching blanket?
