Greetings Bareners,

In December we visited The Harz mountains in Germany and for the first time
ever I was too cold to sketch the environment so ideas have been drawn
imaginatively based on what I saw at the time.

I managed to transpose my only sketch into a lino print. It is based on a
10th century bas relief portraying dragons brawling out of the mouth of a
man. This is a strange variation on the primeval 'green' man who normally
has tree branches growing out of his mouth. The head was on a capital
stone supporting all that is left of the Imperial Church of Saxony (
c960AD ) in Goslar. I have included hyperlinks from the print to the
original sketch and a photographic study which may give you an insight as to
how I work and deviate from original source material!

Okay, okay. I'm not going to go TOO crazy dragging out the completion of this image. I spent yesterday afternoon and this morning catching up (a bit) with some contract projects and am feeling a little more... erm... moderated... in how I'm moving through the week. Time to take a deep breath and see how this aspen reduction print wrapped up. Color pass 7 All that green from color #6 was a
