More attempts at lino block prints! This one was chosen as his favorite by a person quite near and dear to my heart. The eight of wands.
This card represents movement, quick changes, action, and progression. Ya got eight wands that are sprouting leaves flying super fast through air on the way to something big. You’re working warp speed on something you care about, making plans to accomplish something ASAP, or just going where the wind takes you quite quickly.
Hope today is a good day. Hugs -R.
Another round of messing around with different colors of paper and ink, and cleaning up my carvings.
Here she is rockin out in a dope crown of stars, a lovely dress, voluminous-as-all-hell hair, a big ol belly, and a pomegranate in her hand. She has all the potential in the world and is ready to burst into creativity. She’s got a baby growing inside of her, ready to greet the world and learn and grow. She holds a fruit that’s filled with seeds, just waiting to be sown and recreate in abundance. She’s a symbol of grace, beauty, fertility, nurturing, and creation. Her neck seems to blend into the hills surrounding her because she’s very attuned with nature.
She’s got big things on the horizon that are gonna come to fruition before she knows it.
Cheers and hope you’re having an excellent day.

Another (re-learning how to do this) lino block print of one of my favorite tarot cards.

Or at least that’s what I like to think. Hope you’re doing well, friends.
Cheers, R
More playing with block printing and tarot. Only feels right during snowstorms and a pandemic and quarantining to carve The Hermit.
The hermit lives high in the mountains where the stars shine brightly, symbolizing his heightened awareness of his own spirituality. He holds a staff in one hand to steady himself as he walks in solitude, and carries a lamp in the other to light his way. The light doesn’t illuminate anything at a distance, but keeps him aware of his near surroundings and reminds him that the journey itself is part of the wonder of life.
Or so I say. I dunno. Hope you’re having an excellent day.

He is assembled of bits of scrap metal and his caw sounds a bit metallic, but he’s quite proud of himself.
A couple other color variations:
