Hi all!

I have been SO busy that it's taken me a long time to get back to all of your comments. Thanks for watching - new video coming shortly :)

This is the best tutorial I have seen. I hope you will make more. I am a brand new beginner and love the tips you have shared. The Sharpie is a game changer.

This brought back so many good memories from a printmaking class I took in college. (That wonderful ink roller sound 😍) I’m thinking of jumping back into printing and this was the perfect re-introduction! Thank you!

This was extremely helpful. Detailed, informative, and straight to the point! Thank you!

Your lino-sheet looks like it easily carved. I did lino prints my first year in art school. The instructor gave us older plates and the lines were hard to cut. I found that warming the plate in the oven before carving, made for super easy clean cut lines in half the time with less stress on my hands. What type of lino-sheet are you using?

Thanks. Just bought some carving tools and lino. This was my first lino video. A very good start to my learning. Thanks

Some artists add a layer of acrylic color at the beginning so they can see better where they need to carve. I also do this.

My mom bought me a lino cutter at a flea market not too long ago. She thought it was for wood carving, which is something I plunderwith from time to time. It's an old William Mitchell No. 454 but with about 15 different blades inside the box plus the handle. After watching your video, I think I am going to give this artform a try. I love exploring new formats to express my creativity.

I've only worked with wood blocks so far but plan to make some lino prints this winter. I like your method for adding finer details in stages of carving. Thanks for your tutorials. I look forward to more videos.
