Printmaking in the Italian countryside

the art studio and the 1st run of printmaking with lino-cut, still more carving is needed & the plate needs to be treated with sand paper.
her clothes have been carved, final touches still needed the ink took much better after I sanded the linoleum plate.

studio vibes…

reusing an old canvas… but i’m kinda liking the the light blue for a background…
or… maybe i leave it just like this hmmmmm, i might keep more of the background than the original idea…
a third portrait has been added….
troubles with the fourth portrait, at this point i only like the lip on this portrait and i’m thinking about the light blue background…. and the red and the dark navy blue arch I would like to actually keep some of these details..
decided to go with the blue
