So now you know a little bit about printmaking. Now i will show you how i did the print making process.
Then I got a linolium block and traced my design on the block.
Then I started cutting away at the stuff i didn't want. I cut away everywhere that wasn't black.
First i started off with a sketch of what I wanted. The important thing to remember is you have to draw everything backwards.
I used these cutting tools and managed to not cut myself!
This is how the block looked after I inked it up.
I did a couple test ones just to make sure it looked how I wanted it. then I got to printing!
I printed it in multiple different colors such as purple, pink, blue, and green. Now i'm done!
