With almost all of the components of the proposed image finalised, I decided that I needed one more piece of foliage and flowers slightly bigger than the earlier carvings. A quick drawing directly onto the rubber and off I went.
After cutting away all the excess rubber, it was easier to start removing all the smaller unwanted pieces.
All ready to go for a first printing.
Not at all bad for a first try out. I'll tidy this one up and carve a few more tiny flowers to colour red, or probably pink, as I think all the wild briars are in fact pink. Almost everything ready for a trial print of the 'real thing'.
