linocut #3
This one took pretty long to cut. Not only because 2 colors mean I have to cut 2 different lino sheets but also because I had to get rid of so much background.
The sheet on the left for the red color.
Linocut #2
Next cut&print. Sax-Pinguin. It´s more time saving to do cut the "white lines".
Linocut #1
This is my first linocut. I did a couple of more since but will post those later. I am still in super practicing mode but what I like about this whole thing so far:
- It´s not too hard to do
- A printmaking techique I can easily do at home
- Handwork
- I have original prints and everyone is a little different from the one before.
- Easy clean up with waterbased colors
- I enjoy the cutting (even if it takes hours).
- Experimental value
- To work with one or just a minimum of colors
