Gorgeous print - 30 x 44?? that's amazing!

i love the image itself, too - from a drawing or photo of yours?

Again, the print is beautiful, you have great command of the tools. I'm currently an Art major w/ printmaking concentration at Castleton State College (that's in VT ^_^ ), and i rarely see pieces this well done.

bravo!

thank you so much! Yes, it is from a photograph of mine. And 30 x 44 is actually the paper size, the actual lino was only 24 x 36. I would love to do more work this size, but I no longer have access to the big gorgeous press at my undergrad (Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design). One day...

Wow, colour reductive lino.. im just starting lino and this is great print, I love the grey tones they make it seem realistic

~dexter121uk Feb 27, 2005

i really would like to know how you get the different toned of colour??? do you to different linos for each new tone???

~myodalisque Mar 1, 2005

the process is referred to as a "reductive print" because I use once piece of lino, but carve away new sections when I print each color (usually light to dark). I hope that makes some sense.

~philho Nov 7, 2007 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Ah, thanks for the technical point. So that's a one-piece only print...
