Huntress 4x5 Linocut with watercolor
Originally, I had planned to pull this print with two colors; a sold green printed for the whole background, with the figure blocked out to reveal the paper, followed by a black-inked block with all the details carved out. In the end, I like the single print of the black ink, without the green background. I get to paint each print a different color, and I love that. :o)

I never cease to be amazed by your beautiful linocuts, Belinda. This is a beauty! And I agree, you are so generous to share the process of all your work.
Hey Belinda,
Love this one. You do this in the lab? How's it going? 8-]

Very nice work!
This linocut is fantastic. I agree about just using the black ink, it looks great with watercolours and I think the green background would have been too flat. Love it.
