Non Est Tanti

This is the first proof of a lino print of a coat of arms I designed for The Singularity Press back in 1988.The tentative lettering at the top is a quick felt tip sketch. Click to enlarge.
Above is a preparatory drawing on tracing paper, ready to turn over (so that it will be a mirror image) to transfer onto the lino block, about 19cm x 19cm.

Wonderful coat of arms! Brings me back to the one my Grandfather did for our family.

Nice detail. Lino prints are so unique looking. Really like the style.
