Line drawing of dragonfly.
I completed four insect drawings - two each of dragonflies and butterflies. I then traced each one in order to transfer them to the linoleum blocks for carving.

I was pleased with the completed suite of cards. Reach out to friends or family with a handmade greeting card - the best way to stay in touch!
I spent time working in our gardens during the summer. Insects were abundant; particularly the butterflies and dragonflies. I printed new cards based on these inspiring creatures.
