Croton linocut in progress, the yellow block |
Supplies arrived yesterday and the yellow is printed (hand-burnished) and hanging up to dry. Now to cut the same block for the next colour. I'm expecting to lose a few to mistakes during printing, I hope not more than one per colour.

Good luck, Mary. Not done lino reduction, but have done silk screen and ended up losing more than I expected. Mind you, it was my first attempt..... Anyway, love the design I saw on the previous entry and looking forward to seeing the end result.

An interesting technique, its great to see each stage as you do it. If it was me I think I would get increasingly stressed as I progressed but small mistakes can in some ways just add to the works individuality.
Hello Mary,
You've got an even, clear result, and I like the way the background marks have printed, looking forward to see it all build up as you add the next layers.
Hi Mary,
I really enjoyed the lino cuts. I prefer to use eva foam though but I need to stick layers of them together for stability and to enable me to gouge rather than cut away entirely.
