![]() UG! Here's a little peek at the lino print that I'm working on. It's not done yet. In fact I'm not happy with the result at all. I managed to commit my two most common mistakes, so I thought I would blog about in the hopes that I may remember not to repeat them! One: I need to pay attention to what I'm doing! I tend to motor away while my mind goes off on vacation. This is does not make for good art! Here the blue is too bright, the gold under the bird didn't work and the edges look crooked. I also failed to notice that there is not much contrast. This has got to be my second favourite mistake. All of this caused me to look at these prints, after I'd make ten, and go UG! Back to the drawing board! However, I did create a wonderful new dish! New for me that is. Caramelized Lotus root. It is a little sweet because of the brown sugar and crunchy, with the consistency of a water-chestnut. MMMMM I have used lotus roots as stamps before, but now I know how to cook them!
