Hope they'll send it to me quickly :)<BR/>The black is thalo blue with black; I like it a lot, such a cold blue black. It's fascinating what some reference to clearly known traditions do, isn't it?<BR/><BR/>That post is a good one, Katherine - it's so interesting that you were intrigued by the printmaking course too; I've 'met' a few other OCA bloggers online since, am meaning to write up something more detailed about it, and the distance learning bit, but haven't gotten round to it yet;<BR/>The link to your post somehow doesn't seem to work, can you fix it? Or maybe this works when published:<BR/>http://makingamark.blogspot.com/2009/01/open-college-of-arts.html<BR/><BR/>Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle, I read your response on WM, Vivien and am not surprised by your comment here. Yes, with the current set of blocks, I've got some ideas of what I may try but want to print a couple of trials first before cutting further... I like the peculiarities of different media a lot; and the process-orientation of prints is just fantastic. I have so many ideas for that, and how to integrate this with other media... your recent experiments are really interesting for that, Vivien.Gesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15808430595430298345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998420814250658360.post-75370293366548604312009-01-13T19:17:00.000+00:002009-01-13T19:17:00.000+00:00Oh I can so agree with that! cut then think then i...Oh I can so agree with that! cut then think then improvise :>D<BR/><BR/><BR/>I cut lino the same way as I paint, do a bit and change another area.<BR/><BR/>The one I'm currently working on was sketched very quickly onto the lino and I'm now trying to make it work for me - it's changed as I govivienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820836660470146799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998420814250658360.post-4111152319558356422009-01-13T14:08:00.000+00:002009-01-13T14:08:00.000+00:00...and here's the blog post!The Open College of th......and here's the blog post!<BR/><BR/><A HREF="The%20Open%20College%20of%20the%20Arts" REL="nofollow">The Open College of the Arts</A>Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998420814250658360.post-62076636178719055132009-01-13T11:12:00.000+00:002009-01-13T11:12:00.000+00:00Yup - recognised!I'm looking forward to seeing how...Yup - recognised!<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress with this - plus you've given me an idea for a blog post.Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998420814250658360.post-63681002459763765092009-01-13T07:30:00.001+00:002009-01-13T07:30:00.001+00:00Oooh yes, these look exciting.

I like this a lot and will wait impatiently to see the final piece.<BR/><BR/>It really gives that stark look and eerie feel to the place. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps one day I will cut first, then think.
