Kind Hearted Woman Blues part 3

 Not much to do with the proofs I pulled on St Dwynwen the other day, so today I went back to my recent Robert Johnson print.  I had brought the jazz/blues book of discs today, and since Molly wasn't around, I got to play some, suitable for the print I was working on.  Went with blues, and my live Robert Cray show, written about back on July of 2019, and many times since.  Good music to make art to, then and now.  

I finished the image area a while back, but the lyrics are still not done.  They are all drawn now, so it's just a matter of cutting out those letters.  Today it was working on the second line.  I finished that line of backwards block printed letters about the time my disc ended, and decided to call it a day right there.   A photo below shows what I did today:

Not much left here.  Just a few words on the third line.  I won't bother trying to remove that knot of wood- such things are just too hard for my gouges to cut.  However, I have nothing there, so some blue tape will take care of that in the printing.  After the whole thing is cut I'll pull a first proof and see what I got, and if any more needs to be cut.
