I worked on the studios the last couple of days, deepening the colors and adding a little bit of ink. I don’t know if you can see any difference, but I think they are improved. I think I like Studio 1 the best. There is an art gallery show fairly close to me and I am debating putting it and something else in. The cost is relatively low and I don’t have to mail it.
Next up is a hydrangea linocut. I have a two hydrangea trees in front of my house and they have the most unusual flower spike. Only a few of the buds actually flower. I dried several branches last fall and they are quite lovely.

I think I like #1 best, too, but not sure if it’s your work or the building that I prefer!

Me either, Dix. I like the stucco effect. I think it might also be the stained glass windows too.

They look terrific! I don’t have a favorite. 🙂

Thanks, Cindy. If I hadn’t done them together and the fact they were Ruth Laxson’s studios, I might not have a preference either.

Thanks. I wish I could show them to Ruth. I am sure she misses them terribly.
