I decided to do a 2-color print for this months Berube-Bug, and I'm not sure what the reasoning was behind adding all of the baby bugs to the "Mommy", but all of the coverage and oversaturation of "OctoMom" may have seeped into my subconciousness as I was drwaing this.
Below is documentation of the process of what it entails to create a 2-color linocut print.

You forget to tell them their names! Mervis is the Mom, then there is Dotty, Reemus, Bud, Betty, Jebediah, and Geraldine there on the back foot.
Perhaps you were thinking of me... trying to make art... ha.
Great art! I almost prefere the black and white version
You h ave to see the actual print...the color comes out not as well on screen...but the green makes it POP!
I would like my masterpiece was sent in time... but it is not even finished yet!
