I finished carving the block for the horse – only some minor adjustments are left. Now it’s time for the background. A reduction cut, I envision some rolling hills in the hour of dusk. Finished the first and second run. I started to print in a very pale yellow but changed it to a very pale purple. I want to gradually go to a darker blue. The horse will be the last layer in very dark blue or dark purple, maybe a mix of both.

second run background – some of the block is carved away … and as always: time is running, this needs to be done by Saturday!
