The keyblock in a traditonal woodcut is the primary or master block, which contains the main outlines of the image. I think of this as the keyblock for my Babylon print, as it's this block that contains the physical features of the area I'm mapping and identifies the place. I love how these photos look like a view from an airplane.
As you can imagine, this took a long time to carve.

This looks amazing Annie - very ambitious to the untrained eye. I can't wait to see how the print turns out. Good luck!
