I thought the wolf pencil drawing would make a good print, so I copied it onto a piece of A4 lino, added more neck area and blocked in basic white areas with a white coloured pencil. At the moment I don't like to refine a drawing too much - I prefer to experiment with the cutting and see what happens as I go.
This time I tried Zerkall paper for the first time, after mostly using Rives BFK. It took the ink nicely and I like the smoothness so I'll be using it again I think.
Here's the lino with most of the drawing still intact, just after I'd started cutting:
Love it! You've captured the texture of the wolf's fur really well.
