My first add to and return

[William M]

Inspired by Angelica Paez's add to and returns I decided to do one myself. I sent out 30 sheets rubber stamped with a digestive system to be added to and returned. The first to come back arrived today from Adanaland/Alan Brignull. What a great start too!

Alan also sent along this great card which I immediately liked - but was even more impressed when I read on the back of the card that this was a first effort at haiku and reduction linoprints. I've been wanting to try reduction printing myself at some point, but so far haven't gotten around to trying it.

[William M]

yeah, stripygoose. sometimes knowing about the technique of something can make it all the more impressive.

thanks for the info on how you went about it alan. i'm really impressed!

[Alan Brignull]

Thanks! It was brown first, then cut a bit away at the edges. Print white then cut a bit more, then light blue, more cutting and finally dark blue.

[stripygoose]

I didn't know what reduction printing was so I've just
been reading about it. I have watched it bring done
on tv too. If Alan used that technique here - respect!

[William M]

i'm glad it arrived carina! i'll look forward to seeing what you add to it.

Yes, one add & pass arrived in Petsmo today. Thank you, William. Love the envelope and "digestive system" idea! So clever.
