I’m nearly there with this linocut- it’s been interesting working direct to the lino rather than making a drawing first. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner #printexhibition

Thought I would set myself a @printfestulverston challenge to work directly drawing onto the lino with pen and inks. We live on an estuary and sometimes it’s hard to spot land from water..: #penandinkillustration #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

There we are - summer beach. This is one of my favourite local beaches - Rockcliffe- and a wonderful place for walking. #lauraboswell. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

I’m done with the clouds now - they were painted onto the lino and cut around, printing with barely-there ink #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

Here’s an older mokuhanga print of mine - the texture is achieved by coating the paper with size several times to make it hard for the pigments to penetrate. This is a big print 78x34cm #makingajapanesewoodblockprint #mokuhanga #japanesewoodblock #waterbasedwoodblock #woodblockprinting #mokuhanga
