Started a new #linocut inspired by the magical #seahorse! The actual print will be in the reverse, this is just the original drawing on the lino.

This is kind of a belated surprise wedding gift for my pal @blakenewhem

Was an idea we talked about before the pandemic...I hope it’s not too late.

Carving/cutting will commence shortly.

I pulled 10 prints of my most recent #EmpathyIsTheBestSuperpower #BlockPrint! I ran out of paper, so I now have to order more to complete the series.

These were hand printed with @speedball_art professional #SuperGraphicBlack ink on acid free 100% cotton handmade 90LB art paper.

I pulled a test print of this sucker. I got a new ink to play with, so I wanted to see what the ink was like before I prepped the fancy paper I picked up to print on.

Additionally, making a test print give me an opportunity to see how it’s printing and make any last minute adjustments to the cuts. It also help to clean out all the loose linoleum particles that get stuck in the grooves, as even with a good brushing, some of these didn’t come out. You can see in the heart where some particles got stuck in the ink, as well as in the “E” in “Superpower”, where there was a particle which prevented the ink from getting onto the paper.

However, I am quite happy with the quality of the lines and textures. It’s pretty much exactly what I intended for this work.

With this piece I have picked up some #Speedball professional #SupergraphicBlack. As it’s an oil based ink, which means, once it’s completely dry, I should be able to do a watercolor wash over top of it.

Well at least my original concept was to wash this series with watercolors, but I’m really digging the likes and textures in black and white.

What do you folks think, should I leave it a black and white print series, or should I do the watercolor wash?

I flipped the image so you could read the text! I still got a long way to go, but I’m pretty excited with the progress so far!

Another new #WaterColor #Painting I just matted and framed, this one is called “Concerned Tide Pools”, it’s inspired by the amazing SeaLife in the #TidePools around the #PalosVerdesBluffs! I’m concerned about too many people disrupting the wonderful critters who live there.
