Hi friends, today I would like to share with you the best linocuts I have made since I tried this technique.

This linocut was inspired by the work of Karol Bak. He is a great artist, he paints mostly woman in some kind of magical representation.

These two are actually reproductions. I really liked the original work, so I tried to create something similar.

---

This was just a simple pattern for a decorative papers I used in scrapbooking. I made many versions and completed them fith a golden pen.

---

This was the first thing I made while I recieved a linoleum. It was one of the older linos, made of soft but thick material. It was a pleasure to cut into it.

---

And the last one, 100% original, is a hummingbird with the moon behind. It is in a size A3 and I made lots of variants.

Some of this pieces are on the walls in my home with my other works :)

Linocut is a printmaking technique like woodcut, but instead of a wooden block you use a lino sheet. It first appeaed at the beginning of the nineteenth century in Germany and it was used for wallpaper printing. It is quite easy and effective technique if you want to make more copies of your artwork, but you still want it to look original with a touch of your hand.

You can learn more about this technique in one of my previous posts.
