EVENING BY GILLIAN NIX

 This is a portrait of my lovely husband, Chris in bed asleep.  Every evening I get to fall asleep beside him, making me one lucky girl!  

For this month's project I decided to have a go at making a portrait using lino - something which I hadn't done before. I also trialled making a multi block print in this artwork for the first time.  I carved out 2 separate pieces of lino and printed them ontop of each other to create the final artwork - one in grey and then the other in black.  

The artwork is printed onto A3 paper and the lino blocks measure 20 x 20cm each.

Night.

These are the separate prints laid on on my floor....
