Please where do youby linoleum

All I wanted to know was a good way to transfer a drawing to lino and I got a beautiful man telling me how to live a fulfilling life as an artist. And it doesn’t even matter that I’ve been living a fulfilling life mostly as an artist for half a century, it is still a most wonderful video and I’m going to send it to all my friends whether they are interested or not because there is something here to make everyone’s day a bit better. And another thing - I’m glad I never tried linocut before in all those fifty years, because if I had I wouldn’t now be about to watch this fabulous video for the second time. I’ll pass on the pizza though, although I appreciate the thought, because I’ve just had spaghetti and meatballs.

Loved this aesthetic! Great video! what size notebook is this?

This is brilliant :)

Great demonstration sir and I'm so happy you found some acceptable results! I consider myself a traditional & mixed media artist who enjoys experimenting, especially with acrylic mediums and the like! Although I do understand a bit about lino printing, I haven't tried it myself yet. I have an inkjet printer. For several years I too have been trying to master a diy technique for successful inkjet printed transfers so I can combine and replicate my own images, photos and drawings to create my own original art. So far I have had very little success with inkjet prints. For me the process is hit or miss and def not reliable. I used several inkjet printing papers, acetate & over-head projector film along with lots of standard printer paper. I've tried transferring on to 300 gsm art paper (for watercolour & acrylic painting), canvas, cardboard, mount board, mdf, plywood, plastic and more using a multitude of adhesives and mediums. And all that laborious finger rubbing failed to give me the clean, crisp finish I wanted. There are so many variables to consider. The most decent result was achieved using printable transparent film specifically for inkjet printers along with acrylic mediums. But the ink still showed signs of bleeding & smudging along with blank patches where the medium had dried too fast for the print to adhere! I did learn that applying the surface medium with a brush made the layer uneven so some bits dries before others. Spreading with a credit card or similar gave a better, more even layer. I think it's all about the water-content and fluidity of the medium used. Inkjet inks do not play well at all with liquids so acrylic gels are generally recommended as they are less 'fluid'. It's also a learning process and often quite exciting! Anyway. As time passed I became so fed up and disillusioned with the lack of progress that I decided to shelve the idea. I had a new idea.. to invest in a laser printer! So I did. Should have done so a long time ago. Success was pretty well instant using both standard printer paper with rubbing and no-rub transparent laser printer film. The results were fab! Note 1: Keep in mind that I do not have to worry about having medium on my surface as I can paint over or combine it with my process. But for lino-printing, I do understand that glues, mediums, etc. on the surface of the lino may impact the print quality and ink adhesion - or even create new and interesting effects. Now wouldn't that be nice! Note 2: There is a product called Inkjet Fix Matte by Ghiant - an aerosol that can be sprayed onto inkjet prints. The tin says: "Fast drying varnish for fixing and protecting inkjet inks". There may be other similar products out there. I have it here but haven't tried it yet (not since I got the laser printer!) Maybe this could be useful? In all, I really hope I have helped someone out there!

It turned out awesome. I see a pi in the back, sweet!

That's a beautiful contribution and stunning art you are creating. Really amazing to get inspired. What travel brush are you using?

beautiful work

had to order the whole set of the stoic series right after watching this. They look even better in real life. Thank you so much for the amazing artwork!

You deserve way more views on this. Beautiful videography and art.

Really enjoying your videos. Gorgeous prints. Do you ever find that the mod podge flakes or peels when you are cutting the designs? And are you ever tempted to somehow remove the mod podge before printing? Total curious novice speaking here

Your channel and art is so sick!!! Keep making videos thanks !

Awesome! I’ve gotten my own mangler inspired by you, hopefully it will work! One worry of mine is that the rollers are very tight in the default position, don’t know how i will fit the lino+ printing bed between them?

I enjoyed this so much... I'm currently making my own wooden palette too!

hey great video, where do you get the harder yellow rubber from?

Thanks for sharing this amazing work

Beautiful!

Hi! I used the acrylic method with a laser jet print, but when I used my carved block to print the thin layer of acrylic effects the way the ink applies and transfers to the paper. Do you have any ideas? I had to sand the entire block down, removing the transferred lines completely - which caused major issues as my design was planned as a reduction! Any suggestions on how to help would be much appreciated!

i love your work. i recently start travel journling.I always feel that generalizing is a girl's job.But after seeing your work, I enjoy writing.Once you show me the item you use in writing pen pencil etc etc

Nice job on the press

Fantastic, I need to work in a looser style! It has much more impact!

Try putting less glue, it will be easier to rub off the paper and not the print.

This is beautiful!

Beautiful! I love watching your process.

Thank you so much! This was super helpful!

Danke für das Video. Ich habe auch so eine Wäschemangel und die gleichen Probleme gehabt. Deine Videos haben mir sehr geholfen!

an deinem Deutsch mussu aber noch arbeiten 😂

I know it's been 11 months, but Im wondering how the cut went, I did try this technique but when cutting it it didn't feel smooth. I got rigged lines and struggle to get a smooth cut.

I transfer my inkjet drawings to my lino with Bestine. I used to use blending markers, but they changed the formula so I switched to Bestine. The Smell isn't the best.

Love it! Cool to see your Pirate Kittens!! Thanks 💥

Finally, a true craftsman! The best part, no screaming power tools. I am going to make one today also, thanks for this video!

"Super" wie immer! "Awesome", as always!

I thought I had left you a comment! So three months later…beautiful journal pages! And, you are not alone in your feelings about Moby Dick! It’s required reading here in America ( or, at least it was when I was young! ), and I felt like it was a drag back then!😂 Thanks again, your videos are always so cool and inspiring!! 🤩

Vielen Dank für dein Video die Aufkärung der unterschiedlichen Klebstoffe ist sehr Hilfreich ;) Kannst du mir als weiteren Tipp ev. sagen was du da zum Einstreichen der Linolplatte verwendest ab min 7:00? Liebe Grüsse weiter so :)

You workspace looks so cool 🤩 Would you mind sharing wich specific sizes for the Pfeil tools you used here? I started making my own stamps and have only the L11/1 yet. I want to buy at least 2 more but am a little lost 🙈

Enjoyable AND instructive - thank you. Your colloquial English is impressive too (besser als mein Deutsch!). In addition to a folding thingy the essential tools for any craftsman are the "bangy whatsitsname" and the "cutty doodah" as taught to my by my uncle many years ago. Frohes neues Jahr aus England.

Wow, very interesting! Love how you problem solve on the fly…and, that magic blanket, magnet and great flea market find! As always, outstanding content (and, part 3!)👏🏽❤️‍🔥

This is just so incredible! Love the way your mind works! Thanks for sharing, I’ll check out part 2!🌟

I love antiques and especially if they’re useful in some way. That’s a lovely ringing out press. You gave it a new life! I’ll have to keep my eye out for one if the opportunity arises. 😊

This is brilliant, thank you so much for this!

Wow, this was such a beautiful video! From your art, to your home and studio, all of it is just wonderful! Thank you for sharing your process, it is so fascinating and inspiring. And, your press is just gorgeous! Signed up for your newsletter and continue to make my way through your channel. Saving up for some of the cool things in your shop!🤩

Why don't you write them in German?

Thanks for going through all that pain for us! Great trick to use! 🙌🏻🙏🏻

Thank you! New to your channel and I am loving it! Your creativity is inspiring 🔥🤩

I have finally found a set of opti visors to use when I carve lino or stitch books. I love your videos!!!

Great work 👌

Maravilla!!!😍

Thank you. Because of your video I got four carving tools from the dollar tree and feel that I could do this.

Beautiful fair skin with no tattoos 👀😍 Would you marry me ? 🇫🇷😘

The old presses are much more aesthetic (and probably made of cast iron) 🤩 What a good idea to have saved and restored this beautiful antique 👍🏻
