Reductive woodcut class, week 2

Two new layers on this student woodcut from last night’s class! First, an orange-peach tone to darken the skin in the face a bit, then a bright orange (it’s our shop favourite Day-Glo orange ink again, with a bit of Gamblin block printing ink in Napthol Scarlet mixed in just to tone down the neon glowiness a little).

Here’s colour number two in the drying rack:

And the block:

Here’s the pull for colour number three:

In next week’s session we’re hoping to bang out three more colours in three hours.
