I'm in the home stretch of a three-month stint of solo-parenting (hopefully), so these Thursday dates have been more important for me than ever. I continued my coffee treat trend this afternoon with an iced chai because it was a million degrees outside — summer is here!
Today's class was all about finishing our lino block carvings and making our prints. I learned how to roll on the ink which can be tricky. It's a fine balance between not enough with blank spaces and too much with pooling. I was so nervous to stamp my design, but I am so happy with how it turned out!
I tested my print a few times in the purple and cut away any bits that were getting in the way before stamping on my good paper. My tiny details are still a little rough, but I think it looks so neat. I want to try printing in blue on white paper to get that spanish tile vibe.
As with my zentangles, if you want to see this beauty on your walls, send me a message and we'll chat!
