All four layers are finally done! I am so happy with how they turned out. I made 8 so there was room for changing colours and mistakes if some were misprinted, so I ended up making 3 that were a completely different colour palette, and honestly they were my favourite. The original colours were meant to be green, orange, pale yellow and dark brown, but I changed the dark brown to black, and then did some ones with prussian blue.
The prussian blue ones are nicer because the lines are much less harsh than the black, and it gives a more subtle finish. Then I did a set with pale yellow, pastel pink, bright pink and prussian blue. This colour palette is a lot more lively and illustrative like an image from a book, and these prints were more aligned as well with no misprints. This is probably the one I will put in my exhibition. This is the most ambitious lino print I have done, and I think I pulled it off!
