I have decided to 'hang the expense' and buy fresh lino for cutting in future, this was just too hard to get a smooth line. Still, the rough outlines sort of suit the subject, a very rough bush plant, although the wild variety is white, not the pale pink that I intend to paint this one.

Looking good Sue. how do you get on with the new synthetic 'lino' ?
I haven't tried it yet Mary. I certainly prefer the Soft Cut white rubbery stuff to old hard lino!
I was told a trick to make the lino softer, put it in your back pocket, or sit on it, while you are getting ready and that will soften it. I have tried it and it works a bit but I still prefer the soft cut stuff.
Your image looks lovely.
