Lino printing



I managed to finish this 'sampler' without any further damage to my fingers (the wound is healing nicely) and also made this cutting:



And today I finally had time to do some printing! First a test print on paper:



The small geometric forms print is a lino cut that I forgot to photograph - I signed up for a postcard swap with that theme and thought I'd make a stamp:



And then on to printing on fabric - the sampler prints are a bit light:



But the leaves printed beautifully:



As did the geometric forms:



Lino printing is great fun! Almost as much as screen printing.

Hi Linda,

Your lino cuts are beautiful! Love the shapes.

I really must learn how to screen print!
