Linoprints

Here they are printed together. I decided to go a little crazy with the colours and try out a few things. I had so much fun! (i may have gotten a little out of hand, i now have an enormous number of prints and i can't shake off the smell of printing ink)

lino portrait 2

The second portrait in lino cut, its b&w print and a color version for fun!
I'm planning to have a set of four so i'm printing them individually for now but i will print them together when they're done!

lino portraits

I'm making portraits with the remaining linoleum!
Here's the first linocut, its black and white print and a colored one for fun!
(The quality of the photos are pretty bad but unfortunately, I don't have a scanner yet :( )

The very first part 2

The cleaned-up first linocut and print followed by a whole load of experimenting. 
Oh the joys of printing and the wonderfully toxic smells of printing inks and kerosene!

the very first

This is my very first linocut and print... ever!
I've decided to apply for my master's and it turns out that once you write the hellish essay it's just a lot of waiting around. *snore. So,I decided to fill in my time with a printmaking workshop at Chhaap Baroda! This is the result from my first day!
I had no idea what i wanted to do with my lino so i cut out a small piece and went freestyle. It still needs a little working on though, I have to clean up the messy edges.
I have no idea why i've never tried it before though, It's so much fun!
