I did a few 2-colour reduction linos towards the end of the Complete Printmaker course in 2017. I did the preparatory drawings in Windsor and Newton watercolour markers, which I happened to have in pink and brown, and I really liked the colourscheme for the final prints: it gives 2 characteristic shades with contrast and warmth.

This one is based on a photo on a rare visit home from my brother and was for a Christmas present for my parents.
