@TwiggyT Thanks, it is fun to see the image come together in the end. I never know exactly how it will play when printed.
Here is the 3rd plate... orange. Only one more to go!
@Braden-Hallett some of my thumbnails had the dogs chasing the squirrel... I explored the after as well. I just couldn't get one to work where you could really tell what was happening due to the size difference between the squirrel and dogs.
@theprairiefox The anticipation is what makes this piece. You chose the right moment for sure
@theprairiefox I admire your dedication. I would be tearing my hair out with all those different plates
@Braden-Hallett well my hair is all gone (thanks to my children) so it makes the pulling less effective.
Plate #2... took some playing with the ink to get it to work as I wanted but it turned out okay.
I am testing a new registration method for my plate and paper and that is working great. Only missed registration on 1 out of 12 prints! My previous piece had a lot more registration problems. Ah, the trials of printmaking...
@theprairiefox I really like your concept and your updated image. And oh my goodness, I'm so glad you're showing your process. Woodcuts are so awesome!

@theprairiefox Nice!
@SFischer thanks, it finally dried enough to scan. Put it up on the main thread. But here is what I submitted.
