Summer Busy

 In a bit of a break from theater design I've been busy with summer visits - to and fro - as well as swimming, holidays, and a lot of Minecraft, D&D, and writing.  

In the Venn diagram of those last three plus artsiness, I've been teaching myself how to make linocut prints.  (My house is now covered in teeny tiny slivers of linoleum and smears of ink.)


Part of this effort is just for the fun of it (I've always liked woodcuts and this is a similar aesthetic, but cheaper/easier for a beginner) and part of this is a attempt to learn to design more simply and boldly, and to not lean so heavily on color.
