Linoprint on tissue paper (A4 size)
I was inspired by the flowers in Frida Kahlo's work and Mexican Day of the Dead altars to create this print of my dog. I particularly like the bright red colour against the block black.
I transferred the Caran D'ache pencil image from the layout paper onto the lino, placing it face down to get a reverse image of the tracing then rubbing the back with a twenty pence piece to transfer the design onto the lino. It then took me eight hours to cut out the lines.
