Print #10 - First Color

Here is the first color of print #10. She's a Queen of Hearts for a friend of ours who is having a birthday on Friday. I thought this would be a good subject that would fit well in a man's home.

I'm trying Hosho paper for the first time. I'm also making some prints on Masa paper. Hosho is handmade rice paper, and Masa is machine made. Hosho costs about four times as much money. Honestly, I can hardly tell the difference between the two. Only my wallet knows for sure.

The challenge with the print is going to be making sure that the correct side is up since the bottom and top are nearly identical.
