FRANKENSTEIN'S WOMEN: an artist book in progress


In a week that included the birthday of Mary Shelley (on 30 August), work continued on my current linocut, one of several intended for an artist book based on the women in her masterwork, Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus. The second of these progress views shows several adjustments and changes that were made to the original drawing.

2018 also marks the 200th anniversary of the publication of Frankenstein.
