The 1939 book by Adrian Bell is lavishly illustrated by John Nash and includes a series of fine lithographs alongside some charming line drawings, the book printed at the renowned Curwen Press in Plaistow, London. The book itself is a superb evocation of rural England before the huge changes wrought by the Second World War.

Drawing - done. I'm mostly happy with it overall. I would change a few things with it if it were a painting, but since it's pen (WHY I didn't use my erasable pen from the 80's ?!), I've just made a mental note on how to change it when it's time to carve. But most of it will be "as is."
Now to transfer this onto the lino block. Hoot, indeed...
(1st drawing of 2012 - woohoo!!)

I imagined this piece but it didn't execute as well as I thought. As The Diva says in this weeks challenge, it's about the process, not the product. I'm sure if I had another go it would evolve a little differently.
As I needed concentric circles and I don't have a compass, I was inspired by the apple slicer template and used some biscuit cutters. I only had two circles initially, but it was enough to get me going.
