‘Cecile’ (an imaginary friend), layers one and two, reduction print. Dark layer first, then white which shows up as a lovely blue-grey. I may leave some like this, and add birds to others.. #printmaking #linoprinting #reductionprint

Missed last week’s #printpromptmonday as I don’t think I’ve ever successfully carved text! This week’s #growth is still a challenge but gone for this.. Ganesha in progress on the grounds that he’s a sized-up version of an older print😬 (pictured)

First woodblock print incoming! (In between three commissions..🧡)

Drawing for a new print. The multiple drawing and tracing processes of a multi-block print, complicated by the realisation that I’d forgotten to include the specified background..(it’s a commission..) Back, literally, to the drawing board 😬

#printpromptmonday #process
A block in the process of creating a five layer reduction Lino print (layers 2-4 shown). The block is gradually carved away to create each layer, and in this case I am working from dark to light for that extra challenge😉

Layer four of five. Reduction Lino print. She also has a separate ‘frame’ block to print at the end #printmaking #linoprint #reductionprint

I rarely repeat, but agreed to make a painting to commission similar to a very popular one.. Enjoyed that, again;) #painter #printmaker #commissionedart

Layer two of a dark-to-light reduction Lino print. Always a bit of a brain adjustment working this way around.. #printmaking #linoprinting #reductionprinting

Proserpina’s third layer, of five or six depending how it pans out;) #linoprinting #reductionptint #reliefprint

For #printpromptmonday #spring I’m going with this new blue print, as I called it ‘The tulip-seller’s daughter’. The tulips and colour definitely give it a spring-like vibe for me and I made it in April😉💙

Completed reduction print based on a sketch, which was itself based on a short story I wrote for a contest.
Probably not destined to be my biggest seller but my brain loves what it loves;)

Progress of a dark-to-light reduction test print. Full print awaiting carve, as long as this works! All good so far😉

Nearly forgot #printpromptmonday #earth
but here’s the best fit I can find. Still thinking of reprinting in a subtley different way🤔

Miki update. Just pressed layer three, now to carve and print the final layer. #linoprinting #reductionprint

Another new thing. Like to have a few on the go, especially when they are reduction prints 😊 #printmaking #linoprinting #reductionprint

Starting the carve of my robot, Miki. Originally from a short story I wrote for a contest 😉
