Blue Table Porto

This print is about being in a café in Porto, with a pale blue expanse of weather-beaten table-top plus a skylight bringing light into a dark cave of a room. The feeling I wanted to convey was of being engrossed in drawing and being marooned in a sea of carpet, the table as a raft.
It's a two block linocut print, with selective inking and wiping of the colours on both blocks. The work is for sale. Price €165
