Method

We have a group exhibition starting very soon. I made an urgent order of loads of frames but in my haste, I ordered them the wrong size. 

Challenge.

I then planned and made a handful of new prints the size of a whole imperial sheet to fit them in the frames. 

My little wooden types and I had a great morning. They have been languishing and getting very very bored in their drawers.

I like the texture. Some types had some old ink on them that just came out by pressing them. 

 It is a pleasure carving that nice soft Japanese plywood.

 One more type detail. Different colour.

And chine colle.
