This is certainly nothing to rave about, it's a first and I have lots of questions about how to do it right. Anyway it was fun and I want to do another soon.
The ink is still wet and I can see a glisten that looks like white spots- and there are a few white specs where black should be too.
I did this with dry paper, is the paper supposed to be damp? I can tell ones mind must be trained to see dark where normally you would think light and vice versa.
The first print on canvas, I will be cutting into the lino block after printing the first 50 copies, and printing on top...
Hand pulled lino print on vintage paper using oil based printing inks. Tulips are my favourite flowers so I couldn't resist! I love the vintage quality to lino prints which remind me of Edwardian wood cuts.
This is my newest print. Based on one of my Dad's photographs of downtown Atlanta. www.flickr.com/photos/68137880@N00/
I am very happy with how this one turned out. A bit moody and stormy. The city and the tree are two separate blocks.
The Japanese tsunami disaster really struck a chord with my daughter, Hannah, who is a printmaker. She made a small bookmark-sized linoprint in response. She said that the home videos of the water washing away houses and cars and huge ships washing inland affected her greatly. Our hearts goes out to all the families trying to find each other.
She is selling this bookmark on etsy.com for $10 and donating $5 to the Red Cross Tsunami Relief for every bookmark she sells. Here is the link:
