Yes, tomfoolery! I like that word, it’s not everyday you get a chance to use it. Unfortunately I sound like stereotypical grandparents now.
Here are some detail shots of the linocut:
Lots of tiny cuts! I’m sad that this stuff doesn’t show online. The digital age fails me here.
When I showed my mentor, she made an observation that the eye was more alert/alarming in this version and I couldn’t figure out what it felt reminiscent of and then it hit me…
Dramatic Prairie Dog! It makes me giggle so joyfully. I even did a side-by-side comparison.
It’s uncanny! ha.

Robyn added these pithy words on Oct 28 08 at 2:04 pmI think the hand needs some more cut out of it (maybe the left side of the ear also). The skin on the face and chest is pretty much white, while the hand which in front and needs to pull away is more midtone.
The alarmed prairie dog eye is nice though.
