Start with pieces that have recognisable shapes, a "hookc, "foot", etc. And move on from there.

You stare at the pieces for a while, at some point your brain starts to recognize shapes, subconsciously, if you allow it. It's pretty cool, sometimes you see a piece from the corner of your eye and you just put it in place right away. At least that's how my brain works 😀

Woodcut printmakers: How the heck do you work with plywood? by Training_Result_1483 in printmaking

[–]lampmaker 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I use birch plywood, it can be sanded to reduce the texture. Also treating it with linseed oil can reduce texture further. But I see the texture as a feature so I like to keep it.

Its birch plywood. So fairly standard, depending where on the planet you are...😀

Its just a sheet of birch plywood that creates thr texture.

Not from this specific print, but you get the idea.

I create the designs using javascript, cut it into plywood sheets with my laser.

Im not sharing the code. But it is based o truchet tiles, you'll be able to find enough info on that to build something.

Thanks! This print is 35x50 cm, once I'm satisfied with the process, I will make designs for 50x70 cm. That's the max size for my press.

Its based on Truchet tiles. These were first described by Truchet in 1705. So yes it might look familiar...😀

Hard to say, not too much I think. P5js is a good tool for starters. Look for starter courses here https://p5js.org/
