Like you, I have tools and paper which have teased me softly from a shelf. Why does linocut have this influence on people. How intimidating could it really be, after all?<BR/>So, here goes. This weekend will be my first cut into the virgin lino square. Wish me luck, and thanks for sharing your first cut.<BR/>~Sonya<BR/>(Sagoontuesdays)Sonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16652019948268632520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034897510911253920.post-54052499236729129052008-03-05T08:44:00.000-04:002008-03-05T08:44:00.000-04:00Like your sunflower!Yes,sunflowers have this absol...Like your sunflower!Yes,sunflowers have this absolutely positive character:sun,summer,warmth,smile,smile,smile..<BR/>When I was a child we were doing a lot of linocuts at primary school and still now children are working in this technique..this is very often here..my older daughter who is studing a graphics design works also often linocuts.flyinamberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17198079585448938288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034897510911253920.post-16181778402752041852008-03-03T20:39:00.000-04:002008-03-03T20:39:00.000-04:00Your blog is lovely, another new find for me today...Your blog is lovely, another new find for me today!

A few hundred, (probably closer to 300), images later and I'm still printing away. I seriously can't stop at this point.<BR/>I guess it helps having a small press in my studio, no excuses, it's always there waiting for me. :0)<BR/><BR/>I've even managed to utilize the images from my printmaking into set and costume designs for a friends short film trilogy. If you want, you can check it out here, towards the end of the montage are the films, you may recognize some of my work.<BR/><BR/>http://www.dancerink.com/dr-videos.htmlDavid Berube BerubeArthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02636748099902489184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034897510911253920.post-83422505461739858772008-03-01T23:18:00.000-04:002008-03-01T23:18:00.000-04:00wow! you go gurl!!!!wow! you go gurl!!!!woolydaisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12213217640973672202noreply@blogger.com
