"Rough Cuts"





                        For this post I've experimented with a new working method. Like a sculptor who produces a "maquette" as a preliminary to a finished piece, I've played around with some 2"x2" pieces of card and put down some images from sketches and notes.
                        As always the problem is the question of "scaling up" an image, although these finished pieces are only 12"x12".

                                                 
 
"Rough - cuts" - 2"x2" each.
