Now I'm ready to print my block of wood. I'm going to repeat the process I did earlier,
by lying the block upside down, so that I can get it fairly centered onto my piece of
paper. Press it down, and flip it over. Again, I'm going to rub the block, just to get make
sure that it's sticking on there. And then I can start again with the process of printing
it. Using my piece of tracing paper, starting with my barren to give a good initial press
of that block, and then I'm going to go into that with my wooden spoon. Again, I'm going
to hold onto this piece of tracing paper. Now as we've mentioned before, if you want
to check on the progress of how it's printing, you can just pull back. And because, not only
do we have a little bit of a darker color here, because it's my second layer of ink
I'm getting a really fast impression. The more times I'm going to print today, the easier
it is for me to pull off ink onto this piece of paper.
