#linoprintcut

It's taken some time, effort and lessons learnt along the way, but the stag is finally complete! 🙌🙌🙌 Overall I'm pretty pleased with it and I've learned a lot from the process. There's definitely bits I'm not happy with and would change if I were to do this again (I'm not doing this again!) but I'm happy and more importantly, my aunt is happy I used @cranfieldcolours caligo safe wash ink, Canaletto paper sheets from @handprinteduk and #pfielcarvingtools #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #printmakingforthepeople (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkBtoOBL8FX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My latest entry for @printober_official This combines several of the week two earth prompts, including dinosaur, tree, seed, planet and mountain #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #printmakingforthepeople #printober #printober2022 (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjyUBrlrhI1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I decided to try #printober but I knew there was no way I was going to be able to do a print every day! (And given I'm just recovering from a cold that prevented me from doing anything for the better part of a week) So I decided to combine several of the prompts from the first week into one design #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #printmakingforthepeople #printober2022 #pfeil #cranfieldcaligosafewash (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjd26XQLhlI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Made a start on my @printober_official week one Lino block. I decided to go a little fantastical and steam punkish with this one. However, I’m gonna call it quits for the evening given that I managed to stab myself 😂😅 Hopefully I can get it finished over the next few days. I'm thinking I might try a bit of chine-collé to give it a bit of xolour #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #printober #printober2022 (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjOXr3GLVtI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Using my new press. It took a bit of troubleshooting but I got there in the end! I think I'll still end up tweaking it over the next few weeks to try and get more even prints and no double printing! #linopress #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #testprint (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjEL9vOrsmD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Excited Nikki noises! 😂 I have a printing press 😍🤩🥳 My wonderful family @juliethomas7996 @careygreen2121 and my brother allowed me to have my Xmas pressie early this year. I can't wait to try it out. But first, off to help out with a masters module #printingpress #linopress #etchingpress #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjAwepls5eD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Trying to figure out extender while doing some test prints on this GSD I definitely added too much paint for the translucency I wanted 😅 I have a feeling I should have got one of the bigger sizes #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #extender #germanshepherd #gsd (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CidP5aILR98/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finished the lino cut German Shepherd dog. I think he turned out pretty cute 🥰🐕 Will do a proper (i.e not ink pad) test print in the next day or two #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #germanshepherd #gsd (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiayD_lLK1p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally got around to painting the backgrounds on my snakes (one left plain for reference). I used my inktense paint palettes. Some of the paints laid down smoother than others. I'm not usually a fan of bright colours but I think in this case it works #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #snakes #inktense #inktensepaintpantravelset #inktensepaint (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgu84EjMCHU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Latest ink pad test print. Pretty happy with this little landscape scene. I want to try gilding the sun but that won't be until later in the month. Lots going on the first couple of weeks (a green festival and a move) #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #landscape #mountains #sun #sunray (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CguvHZELp2C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Test print of my latest lino cut I really like this one; just one bit to neaten up I'm hoping I can figure out my gold relief ink because I would like to try this one in gold on black paper #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linoartist #linocuts #linoguanciale #linograbado #linoprintcut #linoprints #linoleum #landscape #sun #blacksun #mountains (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgpYuJbrfLQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Snake bookmark. Had some fun and games printing these buggers! I kept smudging the bottom right corner against my homemade registration device 😩 but I got one or two decent prints so I can't complain too much I am now covered in ink though 😅 #lino #linocut #linoblock #linoprint #linocarving #linocutting #linogravure #linocutprint #linoprinting #linocoven #linopattern #linocuts #linoprintcut #linoprints #snake #bookmark (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgXpqDiLdvw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
