Drawings and transfer images for a Frida Khalo linocut. This print will be for a Frida Khalo themed party in town, and also stands as a test for another linocut I'll be working on soon. I'm illustrating the month of February for a 2014 letter-pressed calendar; a collaboration between several Richmond artists. The theme is "River City", but I'll probably incorporate Valentines Day somehow - because I love that pink, frilly shit. Haven't made a linocut in a couple years so I wanted to do a practice run first. Still have a bit of carving to do before I can make the final Frida print. Coming soon!

Had a marathon day of printing last weekend, using some fancy brayer work and salvaged vintage rubber blocks from a local bag shop that went out of business (courtesy of Corn Meal Press!).  An exercise in design rather than my usual drawing.  Made a lot of throw-aways, but had some decent ones by the end of the day...
