More tiny linocuts underway....

The plumbing adventure which began on Monday ended up becoming a day-long distraction yesterday, so schedule-wise everything has got a little out of whack. The good news is that, whilst I couldn't get a good run at any big tasks yesterday, I did manage to squeeze in the first carving on two tiny linocuts.

I also tore down a stack of paper and got my jig all set up last night, so this morning it was once again time for Printing in Pajamas. I don't know... just a strange personal quirk, I guess. There's something nice about going straight from bed to printing table. When I'm finished printing I can eat breakfast and take a shower and turn my attention to the rest of the day with the satisfaction of already having completed something worthwhile.

So.... new on the rack: Tiny sunflowers and a tiny lark sparrow-to-be. Yippee!
