Print making 3

Linocuts i found really difficult.  It's the reverse of what you think will be printed hence i cut out wrong things sometimes.   I also couldn't bring myself to destry the linocut to do mulitple colours - you cut some out, print, cut out more, then print with diff colour etc etc.  If i can find it i will show an incredible artist mad version of this technique.

This first one is copy of the window in the church in Trafalgar Square.






the following shows how i cut out wrong bits -but i still like it a bit



2 etched flowers






Printing done by gluing things on card - textured collaged, aplying ink, laying on paper and putting thru press.  It can give you an embossing too.
