Printmakers! I'm having trouble with ink drying when doing reductions...
Do you print when the previous layer is completely dry or still tacky?

Artists! How do you send your prints?
I'm struggling to find shipping tubes strong enough for my prints with a diameter large enough for my thicker paper...
Would love to hear what suppliers you use - DM me if you are more comfortable!

I've just been busy playing with my new etching press!
It's been a learning curve to get the pressure juuuust right, and get consistent prints... But I think I've figured it out! ✨☺️

Printmakers! Another question...
How do you prepare your Lino?
Sand? Seal? Nothing at all?
Having trouble with sealing mine with PolyAcrylic to keep my design on the block. It's always splotchy!

Prepping a new piece... hopefully it will be ready when my press arrives!
Can you guess which beach this piece is inspired by? (Hint: Somewhere on Mull!)

Ben More is looking beautiful today!
Had to snap some shots of my reduction linocut print "Taking a Dip" while we have this sunny spell.
It's definitely feeling like spring, and soon our highland cow neighbours will be out on the loch again! 🐮 🌄

Question for my lovely printmakers out there, what paper do you use?!
Looking to start printing big (A3+) and wanted to invest in some sturdy paper for multilayer linocut reductions.
Fabriano Rosaspina is on my radar at the moment but keen to hear about alternatives!

I've been busy doodling and preparing some new products. I really want to create a few bookmarks based on the wildlife found here!
Fun times in the studio, playing with different sizes, compositions and styles!
