Linocut printmaking class


Today I took a linocut printmaking workshop @ the Red Brick Gallery in Ventura, California with Phyllis Gubins.  Phyllis gave us a lot of information about printmaking materials and introduced me to Blick wonder-cut linocut blocks.  The wonder-cut block is so easy to carve out designs and apply ink to the surface.

So this is my linocut design and printed on white card stock.  I used regular ink from a stamp pad, but tomorrow I'll pull out my printmaking ink and pull another image.  I can see the possibilities of creating my own design for cards and even creating larger pieces.  Now I just need to order some of this Blick wonder-cut linocut blocks.
