Lino Block Sketch

Sharpie on Linoleum Block

8"x6"

I have not shown my process from sketch, to block, to finished print in a long time and thought I'd illustrate the process a little bit.

If you look at the sketch below you can see how I have reversed the image and enlarged it for a 8"x6" block of linoleum. I expanded the image in all four dimensions to give it a little more space and room to breath. I should be able to carve the block and post a proof in a couple of weeks.

Linoleum Block Print

4'x3"

Printed a few proofs of this new block along with about 80 prints of the 'Spring' block for holiday cards. There are a few things to fix but I am ready to create the color block soon!
