So I have finally learnt to manage the whole scheduling posts in advance malarkey (hence my organisation with all my Christmas projects) however it has left me feeling like a strange automaton has taken over my small corner of the internet. So this is my rebellion, an impromptu post as I procrastinate from writing my assignment!
Apologies for the shoddy photograph, I completely forgot to take a proper picture when I was done so I just pulled this one off of my phone. This is my first properly finished lino-print of my mother's very handsome dog! There are a million mistakes and imperfections and there are a lot of changes I wish I could make (the permanent nature of printing to a girl who lives with one hand on the Ctrl+z short cut and has an industrial eraser in her bag at all times takes some adapting to) but I do like it.
Have any of you guys tried lino printing? Any advice you could impart for next time?
Great job on this! My husband has done lino block printing in art school and I soooo have been wanting to do it. Thanks for the motivation!

Ohh, I am so jealous of him. I have wanted lessons for such a long time, I sign up for the night-class every year but they never have enough people to run it so it is always cancelled :(
DeleteWhat gorgeous job!!! Seriously, that is beautiful!
