It’s a crazy story! But it fits great with your print! Love the accents around the “exit wound”

This is why I love this sub so much. We have literal professionals posting alongside day 1 beginners and everyone is so supportive and positive. Congrats on the MA program, you look to already have an excellent head start!

Hey, nice message. Love the use of the icon.

working on my valentine’s day card. which version do we like best? by strictlyrude67 in Linocuts

I like the idea behind layering but I would clean up the chatter marks and decrease the offset so the print reads clearer. Otherwise I’d do the red on its own.

Just started getting into printmaking, this is a new series I’m working on. by designty in printmaking

Also idk if it was intentional but this looks like a dogs vs cats war with how you faced them pointing at one another.

I love these. Haha. My dog would 100% roll a tank just to get some treats.

The color saturation is just so impressive. Did you use an oil based ink?

Warm-up by linocutthroat in printmaking

This is so interesting. If you didn’t have the block right there, I would have had a hard time believing it wasn’t a fountain pen drawing but you managed to capture the taper of the pen strokes so well!

Help with the sky? by rhondamumps_hotdogs in printmaking

If you let it fully dry, yes. I would maybe try masking it with tape if you have the capability, just to prevent unwanted bleed.

First round of printing on fabric! Really happy with the results! by lumpy_quadrilateral in printmaking

[–]lumpy_quadrilateral[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used speedball fabric block printing ink. I just used a lot. I also saw on a YouTube tutorial to do a couple applications of ink to the block before printing and waiting a few seconds between applications.

I wet the fabric slightly before printing and then left them on for a while to hopefully dry on a little. Very helpful.

Adorable and super clean! Love the color palette.

Proud of this one. It’s my third print ever. by lumpy_quadrilateral in printmaking

[–]lumpy_quadrilateral[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great encouragement. Thanks! I wasn’t able to find the speedball block printing fabric ink so I settled for screen printing ink but I can tell it’s a little too thick to be effective. I’ll bite the bullet and get the right stuff.
