Horn Poppy - further progress views

 

The carving of Horn Poppy, 20 x 15 cm, a linocut partly based on the wallpaper designed by May Morris for Morris and Co, circa 1885, is near completion. 

The image was drawn freehand onto the lino block, then coated with a layer of transparent drawing ink in order to see the carved areas with greater clarity.
