Maude has been busy hand printing using an improvised baren to transfer her image. A very useful tip for those without a press. Here’s what she has to say:
‘Here are two variations of a lino cut ‘map’ of the Porter Valley from Shepherd Wheel to Forge Dam – still very much a work in progress. It is a record of so many walks over the past year!
For the time being I have printed it by hand, as it is too big for my mini XCut press. I found this cheap tealight holder makes an excellent baren, as it is easy to grip, and I can put my weight firmly on it – much better than the spoon I was using before.
Looking forward to getting back to the big press though!’
