A Melody of Line


A lineleum block print. This is my first attempt at cutting and printing lineleum blocks. It is a lot of fun and many surprises as you pull off the prints to see what you have. No two are alike. You are not restricted to only black prints. Experimenting with color gives you many interesting effects.
This print is 4 by 5 inches.
