... Okay, so this is obviously not completely impressive, but this also represents the very very first time I've ever worked with this.
Unlike clay, Linoleum is hard. It's like wood, but smoother. It's indeed very much like woodcarving. It has given me a greater appreciation OF wood Printing just doing this one. I nicked myself a couple of times getting this one done.
For sure, it's not prefect. It's only somewhat similar to the drawing I put down to do as a guide. I probably could get it even closer if a) I had an Ink Pad or a Ink Roller, and b) maybe took a knife to it a little bit more. Still, for a first actual Lino Print, it's not bad! There are for sure others that are better.
I have three more little blocks to practice on (Yeah, I know, I should work with larger, but I'm working on a budget!). Doe anyone have any requests on what I do on the other blocks?
