Man at work

 This is an experimental reduction linocut postcard. I've got an idea for a larger print featuring the men in orange, so this ia a kind of ttest for shape and colour. Time was dressing in orange singled you out as belonging to some mystical cult, but now it makes you a working-class hero.

The colours here were red, yellow, blue. I love how black the final layer has come out.

Adventurer

 "You have to be young to print," said HAP Grieshaber, "Printing is an adventure." (Drucken ist ein Abenteuer, 1978)

Some days I feel younger than on others. But I am ready for the adventure. "Printing is an encounter of chance with meaning," he says in the same essay. That is what makes it an adventure, what makes printing so exciting.
