Lino Print 3 - Cyanide Rose
My third print EVAR. It's my first two-color print, named Cyanide Rose due to the fact that the color used is a rather specific tint of cyan that I mixed myself.
The original plan was to use the cliche crimson red to fill out the color, but a combination of excessive cliche and a lack of actual crimson block ink took me away from that. So I decided to use a much more unlikely color that I could attach a much more interesting name to.
I came up with Process Cyan, which I tweaked a bit to get this particular shade.
I think it's pretty decent and interesting as-is, but I also think there's a lot that could be done to fill up that mass of negative space.
