A couple of weeks ago I took a staycation that was supposed to be a chance to catch up on some projects I’ve felt like I was falling behind on. Of course, that’s when I got the flu. Not the swine flu, but just the plain old I don’t have the energy to do anything flu. So, it was a minor miracle that I got some things done. I got some under-sketches for a series of drawings that I intend to turn into a book, tentatively titled “13 Devils and 13 Demons”.
I also made this block print of a flying squirrel, which started as sort of an upbeat greeting card for a friend (normally, I don’t do upbeat) and wound up being something I was pretty satisfied with. The card was two colors, easy enough to do just by inking up the top with brown and then the bottom with green. That’s my favorite kind of dual color print, no need to worry about registration or cutting multiple blocks. I also did a few single-color prints with some Speedball paper I had.
The print and card are available through my Etsy store.
