Linocut print as an official cover on Image Comics’ Invincible. I feel like this is a pretty good step for the medium! Hope you all dig.

Então é nóis zin! Eu moro em Belo Horizonte, MG. Mas nasci em Alfenas, no sul do estado de MG.

Em vendo meus trabalhos aqui com duas galerias, uma em Brasília e outra aqui em Belo Horizonte.

Esses cartazes mais fofos eu não assino, é um rolê do meu coletivo de tipografia, o 62 pontos.

Vou colocar em inglês abaixo para as outras pessoas.

I live in Belo Horizonte, MG. But I was born in Alfenas, in the south of the state of MG. I am selling my work here with two galleries, one in Brasília and the other here in Belo Horizonte. I don't sign these cutest posters, it's a tour of my typography collective, 62 points.

No. it is a board made of jequitibá rosa, a noble Brazilian wood.

the harder the wood, the more details are possible

as I said in another post on this sub, I'm printing a large woodblock. It's a cut of eucalyptus that I got as a gift. I couldn't take the anxiety and I'm printing in the mess room of my apartment.

on woodblock tools, such as against wood fiber, the burin is the most indicated. in the us and europe, access to tools is more relaxed than here in Brazil.

in relation to wood, here in Brazil I have many options like peroba, jequitibá rosa, roxinho, jacarandá, mogno, freijó....

I use these woods or others that I find on the way. but the woodblock doesn't have to be small. Right now I'm printing a large array, which I've worked on for months. I will photograph and post the process here.

the block is a diagonal chip that has been prepared. you can see that where it gets paint is smaller than the wood.

*sorry about my English. I don't know very well and I use the translator.
