Ideas for the print

I find that I am quite anxious about the first print. I know I should simply "go for it" and have done but still I want to get the most out of this first attempt and so there is pressure. I have completed two preparatory sketches. I am aware that once I start working on the block, the image and the process will take over and I will be carried along. Nevertheless I need to do all this preparation. I think it is a subconscious means of creating courage and at the same time I am storing ideas that will be there when I need them. Probably I am just putting off the first cut.
