Here’s my second panel.

I keep futzing with it…..not quite happy with it yet, but it’s almost there. One thing that happens with this sort of drawing (or with carving a linoleum block for block printing) is that you really do need to sort of step back from what you’re doing now and then and make sure you’ve got your positive and negative spaces sorted out in your head! It can get confusing. To remedy that while I was painting I put this sticky note on areas I did NOT want to paint.

Hey, whatever works, right?!

Next – grapes….I think….or maybe an eggplant.
