Yesterday was a great art day. I carved a lino then printed it, scanned it, enlarged it, inverted it, flipped it and then had it lasered into wood. Did you follow that?

Here are prints from the lino version. The image on the left was rolled with a small roller, so it picked up all kinds of incidental marks that I did not want. I pulled out my Cadillac of rollers and had much better results on the one on the right.
Here's the same image, larger now, that has been lasered into wood.

I also lasered another mat board (which I think would be
fantastic if it actually prints like it looks, but I have to be honest, I'm skeptical).

Here's the original:

The original is an encaustic piece that sold recently at
Haven Gallery and I used a picture of the original for the laser file. I'll need to coat the mat board with acrylic medium--following my steps posted
here--at some point and schedule more time at
WPA's studio.
Proofing will need to wait until tomorrow on the woodcut. Will post as soon as I get a chance to print!
