Star Book
Our Printmaking blogger, Rebecca, shows us a wonderful book that she created. She runs us through the steps that she took to create this book, and all of the different materials that she used to create it. Take a look at this fun, interactive book!
This was one of my favorite books to create. Not only was the process of this book fun, but there were so many steps to release built up creative freedom! I First made two linocuts of two frogs for the insides, and covers of my star book. The front and back cover have a dark sage green fabric binded onto the cover, with a mix of three colored strings twisted for a visual interest, and to tie the…

my absolute dream house is a little bit midcentury (i saw a beautiful house on instagram) but ultimately minimalist but using warm materials (off white walls in warm grey or blue tones with hardwood floors is my rly rly favourite combination. airy). minimalist and highly practical design. storage and space for the colour in the room to come from things i already use , art stuff, hiking gear, plants, dishes. but space for clear surfaces, space for resting my brain and eyes and everything to be put away. big window that faces trees or a wide open space, not something overstimulating. i would love that
#kiddo say#basically airy. airy is the dream.#i love minimalism with warm materials so that your belongings are the decor . big pinecone enamel mug printmaking tools#hiking gear is colourful a lot of the time i love when people have their climbing rope on the wall. i love how it looks#i want huge mountain poster#and no dogs ever#(overstimulation sensory nightmare)#and basically it will be a studio with space to rest

BERKANA woodcut print rune deck hand made by PJ Superior features each of the 24 Elder Futhark runes (plus a ”Wyrd” card) carved by hand into birch wood and printed in a hand cranked barrel press. (The backs printed with a spoon.) Along with the rune symbols, each associated Norse word along with a simple, deeply meaningful illustrative border is carved into the wood from which these cards are printed. The Norse rune symbols are still the main visual focus.
The woodcut print method used to create this hand crafted set of cards ensures that the wood carving typical of the most ancient sets of casting runes is still present in this contemporary deck.
I call this rune deck BERKANA after the 18th rune in the Elder Futhark alphabet, because it means “birch” which is the same type of wood used for the carving of this deck. In runic divination, Berkana represents growth, renewal, and hope.
A home made guide booklet, sewn by hand, is included to share interpretations for divination. The guidebook includes cultural background and history of the Elder Futhark runes, as well as insights into the inspirations and meanings of the artistic imagery accompanying each symbol.
Limited edition of 50 funded via Kickstarter
A handful of decks now available:

This is in the category of annoyingly simple yet true advice but highly recommend doing/creating something with your hands as a strategy for hanging onto whatever remains of your sanity. Personally speaking I can particularly recommend linocut printmaking, because (1) surprisingly cheap as artistic hobbies go and (2) knives
#the amount of furious rage-carving i've done lately...#woodcut is even more satisfying if you really wanna stab something but it does require somewhat more expensive tools#my posts#art things#printmaking

In college I was never really a big fan of linocut (team copper plate intaglio here), but I’ve found myself doing it a lot more lately because of work and also because I don’t really have access to an etching tank at this moment (hopefully will soon). Was so tired of my raggedy speedball lino-cutters and ordered myself a this flexcut set and I’m super excited!

Kind of beautiful looking and also heard good things about them. Sharpener is a plus too.

Lets Try Woodcut!
This week, WhereCreativityWorks is happy to introduce our new Printmaking Blogger, Becca, a graphic design major with a love for all things printmaking. In her first post, she shares about trying woodcut with acrylics. #MarywoodArt #Printmaking #DayOne
For my first blog post I would like to introduce myself as a free spirit when it comes to the processes of creating. I believe in repurposing things of all sorts to create something that speaks to me. I also enjoy printmaking of all types, and something I had never done but always had interest in was creating a woodcut! For my first woodcut piece I found inspiration from my summer trip to Aruba,…
