Working with sketches drawn on location and the occassional reference photo, Royden Card creates a series of drawings with ink and brush to work out a final design. He then reverses the final drawing and tranfers it to the block (preferably cherry), and will then spend up to 80 hours carving, making slight changes as he goes along.
