Robin Lino - Researching Methodology

Having a lino workshop we had to produce some prints with the full body view of our animal. I created the Robin itself at first and decided I wanted the border and background to look almost "woody"; like how wood would look if it had been hacked at. I removed the background in a sort of chiseling method. I didn't do any reduction for this lino although I implemented the process on Photoshop so that I might get an idea on how the piece would look. I have a larger scale piece of lino which I will be creating a print with and hopefully doing some reduction prints.
