Moth second plate

At last I have finished the cutting of the second plate.



The patterns are quite different from the first plate, as I want to overprint and see what happens.



I also cut a mask, using a test print from the first block. I can’t now remember why I I wanted to do this but I had written it down in my invaluable to-do book.
(Note to self: Good idea to add reason or give self some clue or other.)Anyway I hope I will remember when I start printing.

I was looking at the new plate and the cut-out print from plate one and thought how much I liked the isolated pink moth.



Some more possibilities are suggesting themselves.. sadly not the reason for the mask yet.



More soon..
