I've made more progress this week on my wind map print. I ended up printing eight (I think; sometimes I forget to count) colors on the reduction woodcut. After that I printed a few colors on an uncut block by inking the block and then using masks to create the shapes I wanted. Here are some photos.

This is the final reduction, printed in blue, which I think is the 8th color. |
|
Here I've added two areas of color, blue at the top and green below, using the same acetate mask for each. |
|
I added two white shapes, again using acetate on an uncut block. |
|
The white looks very opaque in the previous photo, but it's actually quite luminous and transparent. |
More layers to come.

This process has been fascinating - and I absolutely love the effect of the white. Wonderful!
Can't wait to see where this is going Annie!
