Blocking

I made these block prints last night. I worry sometimes that all my time spent at the computer is sucking away my creativity. Certainly, the computer is a strong magnet and often it is difficult to pull away and get started on a messy real-art project.

These blocks are nothing special. But working with the materials and squishing the ink and then deciding with my hands in real space where each print went felt so natural. It was gratifying, and reassuring that yes, much of my time may be spent in the digital world, but my hands are still capable.
