I've been frustrated in trying to ink the blocks I cut. I decided the paint was too slick so I made a quick trip into the city and bought some 'proper' ink for both paper and cloth. This foray into a new art form is starting to get rather expensive. (I've commissioned hubby to scour Amazon for better prices.)
But even though I'm not 100% happy I was pleased with what I managed to produce this afternoon.
And it was nice to finally print/see my new blocks.
The first few are on paper.

| double exposure |
The last two are printed on cloth.
The tree is printed on one of my precious walnut/rust pieces left over from this last winter.
SOOOOO many questions yet.

| on pima cotton |

| hand dyed walnut fabric |
I'd say you're doing well with your experiments. I especially like the teasel prints (at least I think they're teasels, maybe they're some other plant!!).
